Acoustic levitation of a rigid nano-sphere at non-continuum conditions

We study the steady force acting on a rigid spherical particle immersed in an ideal gas and impinged by a standing acoustic wave. The acoustic wavelength and particle radius are assumed much larger and smaller, respectively, than the molecular mean-free path. To analyse the system, an asymptotic sch...
