## Abstract The forces and couples on a pair of spheres rotating and translating in a viscous fluid have been obtained by Davis (1969) and O'Neill and Majumdar (1970) from accurate solutions of the Stokes equations. These forces and couples have been used to calculate the collision efficiencies of

## Abstract The forces on two moving spheres are found from the Stokes equations of motion, full allowance being made for the mutual interference of the flows round the spheres, and the relative trajectories when they are falling under gravity are calculated so that the collision efficiency __E__ c
A physical model is presented for the variation in the area of the film during the approach of two equisized liquid drops oscillating between prolate and ablate ellipsoidal forms. The equations derived are applicable to collisions that result in coalescence (for which the area monotonically increase
## Abstract An experiment is described for measurement of the rate of coalescence in a cloud of droplets of nearly equal size. It is found that the value of the collection efficiency is unexpectedly high, and a physical explanation of the effect is given. The influence of electric charges on the dr
