Abstract: A theory is given for the concentration and wave vector dependence of the effective viscosity of a suspension of spherical particles. The analysis is valid up to high concentrations and fully takes into account the many-body hydrodynamic interactions between an arbitrary number of spheres. The relation to the diffusion coefficient of the spheres is discussed.
