Abstract
Using the correlation function approach to transport phenomena, a general formalism is developed for the calculation of the first‐order collisional transfer contributions to the shear viscosity and thermal conductivity of a nondegenerate moderately dense monatomic gas. Applying this formalism to the hardsphere model, quantum corrections to the classical Enskog collisional transfer corrections are obtained and discussed.
