Calculate the aerodynamic mobility of a particle, defined as the ratio of the slip correction factor to the product of the dynamic viscosity of the fluid, the particle radius, and a slip correction constant derived.

This mobility quantifies the ease with which a particle can move through a fluid.

Arguments

radius : The radius of the particle (m). slip_correction_factor : The slip correction factor for the particle in the fluid (dimensionless). dynamic_viscosity : The dynamic viscosity of the fluid (Pa.s).

Returns

The particle aerodynamic mobility (m^2/s).
