Abstract: We evaluate the wavevector dependent (short-time) diffusion coefficient D(k) for spherical particles in suspension, by extending a previous study of selfdiffusion (which corresponds to the case of large k). Our analysis is valid up to high concentrations and fully takes into account the many-body hydrodynamic interactions between an arbitrary number of spheres, as well as the resummed contributions from a special class of correlations. Results obtained which agree well with available experimental data.
