Evaluation of the second virial coefficient for the Mie potential using the method of brackets

Mathematical Physics 2024-10-17 v1 math.MP

Abstract

The second virial coefficient for the Mie potential is evaluated using the method of brackets. This method converts a definite integral into a series in the parameters of the problem, in this case this is the temperature TT. The results obtained here are consistent with some known special cases, such as the Lenard-Jones potential. The asymptotic properties of the second virial coefficient in molecular thermodynamic systems and complex fluid modeling are described in the limiting cases of T0T \rightarrow 0 and TT \rightarrow \infty.
