Abstract

The results of Ursell (1964) are confirmed by proving that there are no additional contributions to Ursell's integral from singularities of the integrand at infinity. The method consists of proving that the asymptotic expansion of a force coefficient Δ(N) is uniformly valid in a finite sector of the complex N-plane. This in turn requires that the kernel of an integral equation remains small in this sector.
