Abstract
Using the recent experimental data for liquid aluminum, copper, lead, tin, gallium and bismuth, the effective interatomic potential φ(r) has been calculated by inverting the Week-Chandler- Anderson (WCA) perturbation theory. Also, the first and second derivatives of interatomic potential φ(r), along with different correlation functions as g (r), c (r), have been calculated for the mentioned liquid metals. With knowledge of the above quantities and their products, different transport coefficients, such as self-diffusion D, viscosity η and conductivity [MATH] have been studied, for the group of transition and non- transition elements, and their results compared with classical measurements of the macroscopic quantities.
