For two equal, well-separated spheres, the Rotne--Prager cross-mobility through order a3/R3 is proportional to
4R3a​(I+RR)+2R3a3​(I−3RR).

Rotne--Prager mobility
A passing forced sphere advects a distant force-free sphere along a curved trajectory. Its longitudinal displacement can diverge logarithmically even when its transverse displacement approaches a finite value.
