Transport Properties of a Fermi Liquid

Abstract
We have calculated the transport properties of a Fermi liquid by solving certain integral equations originally derived by Abrikosov and Khalatnikov. Their result for the thermal conductivity is found to be a factor of 2 too large, and the numerical agreement between theory and experiment is improved by applying this correction. The expressions for the viscosity and diffusion coefficients are also reduced from those previously accepted, but by less than 25%.
