A mode-coupling theory treatment of the transport coefficients of the Lennard-Jones fluid.
We apply mode-coupling theory to study shear viscosity and self-diffusion coefficient of the Lennard-Jones fluid throughout the entire fluid region of the phase diagram. Theoretical results are compared with the extensive simulation data and good agreement is found. In addition, theory is compared to the experimental data on the transport coefficients of inert gas fluids.
