Einstein relation (kinetic theory)
text:
In physics, the Einstein relation is a previously unexpected connection revealed independently by William Sutherland in 1904, Albert Einstein in 1905, and by Marian Smoluchowski in 1906 in their works on Brownian motion. The more general form of the equation in the classical case is where D is the diffusion coefficient;
μ is the "mobility", or the ratio of the particle's terminal drift velocity to an applied force, μ = vd/F;
kB is the Boltzmann constant;
T is the absolute temperature. This equat
