## Abstract Usually the mechanics of star systems is investigated by constructing models under some special assumptions. This method, however, is not satisfying, because there are only few observational data on the real star systems available, so that those assumptions are often quite arbitrary. Th
We study statistical mechanics of the self-gravitating system applying the cluster expansion method developed in solid state physics. By summing infinite series of diagrams, we derive a complex free energy whose imaginary part is related to the relaxation time of the system, and a two-point correlat
