Rotational self-diffusion in suspensions of repulsive particles
The seminar is dedicated to the problem of rotational self-diffusion coefficient in suspensions of spherical particles.The particles interact with repulsive Yukawa-hard-core potential.The rotational self-diffusion coefficient for different volume fractions is calculated within the Beenakker-Mazur method. The results of our calculations within the Beenakker-Mazur method are assessed by comparison with numerical simulations which we also perform.
