Abstract

An overview of recent work concerning tracer diffusion under steady shear flow is presented. The description is made from the exact Boltzmann equation for Maxwell molecules as well as from a kinetic model for general repulsive interactions. The effect of shear flow on tracer diffusion is analyzed in terms of the mass ratio, the force constant ratio, and the interaction parameter.
