Abstract

The spin fluid model is applied to study suspensions of gravitatory dipoles. Faxén theorems for translational and rotational motion of a sphere through the suspension are obtained. Brownian motion is also considered. As a general feature and due to the introduction of internal degrees of freedom, friction and diffusion tensors as well as correlation functions are modified by a factor proportional to the volume fraction of suspended spheres.
