Abstract

Sedimentation of a non-Brownian suspension of hard particles is studied. It\nis shown that in the low concentration limit a two-particle distribution\nfunction ensuring finite particle correlation length can be found and\nexplicitly calculated. The sedimentation coefficient is computed. Results are\ncompared with experiment.\n
