Abstract: We discuss the effects of hydrodynamics on the molecular derivation of the phenomenological Langevin equation. When the mass and density of the brownian particle are sufficiently large compared to the corresponding bath variables, the phenomenological equation is obtained. If, in addition, the size of the brownian particle is sufficiently large, the friction coefficient takes on its hydrodynamic (Stokes) form.
