Abstract

The three-molecular cluster integrals for oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon tetrafluoride and the coefficients of viscosity and self-diffusion for nitrogen and carbon dioxide are discussed on the basis of the Kihara convex-core potential of intermolecular forces. For the equilibrium property, the relative size of the core is essential; for the transport properties, the nonspherical character of the molecule plays an important role.
