Abstract
We evaluate the wavevector dependent (short-time) diffusion coefficient D(k) for spherical particles in suspension. Our analysis is valid up to high concentrations and fully takes into account the many-body hydrodynamic interactions between an arbitrary number of spheres. By resumming moreover a certain class of correlations, we obtain results which agree well with available experimental data for the small and large wavevector limits of D(k).
