Abstract
A general expression for the stress tensor in terms of the pair-distribution function is found, which is valid for classical or quantum mechanics. This expression provides a simple method of obtaining known results such as the kinetic pressure and the coefficient of viscosity. The principal application is to the derivation of an expression for the tension of a spherical surface.
