The Percus-Yevick theory for monodisperse hard spheres gives very good results for the pressure and structure factor of the system in a whole range of densities that lie within the liquid phase. However, the equation seems to lead to a very…
We solve the site-site Ornstein-Zernike equation using the Percus-Yevick closure for binary hard-sphere mixture. We calculate an excess chemical potential for the mixture's diameter ratios of 0.3, 0.5, 0.6 and 0.9, and at packing fraction…
Two related approaches, one fairly recent [A. Trokhymchuk et al., J. Chem. Phys. 123, 024501 (2005)] and the other one introduced fifteen years ago [S. B. Yuste and A. Santos, Phys. Rev. A 43, 5418 (1991)], for the derivation of analytical…
The simplest bounded potential is that of penetrable spheres, which takes a positive finite value $\epsilon$ if the two spheres are overlapped, being 0 otherwise. In this paper we derive the cavity function to second order in density and…
The energy route to the equation of state of hard-sphere fluids is ill-defined since the internal energy is just that of an ideal gas and thus it is independent of density. It is shown that this ambiguity can be avoided by considering a…
A recently derived method [R. D. Rohrmann and A. Santos, Phys. Rev. E. {\bf 76}, 051202 (2007)] to obtain the exact solution of the Percus-Yevick equation for a fluid of hard spheres in (odd) $d$ dimensions is used to investigate the…
The structural properties of fluids whose molecules interact via potentials with a hard-core plus n piece-wise constant sections of different widths and heights are derived using a (semi-analytical) rational-function approximation method.…
The depletion force and depletion potential between two in principle unequal "big" hard spheres embedded in a multicomponent mixture of "small" hard spheres are computed using the Rational Function Approximation method for the structural…
We consider the effect of intermolecular interactions on the optimal size-distribution of $N$ hard spheres that occupy a fixed total volume. When we minimize the free-energy of this system, within the Percus-Yevick approximation, we find…
The Ornstein-Zernike integral equation method has been employed for a single-component hard sphere fluid in terms of the Percus-Yevick (PY) and Martynov-Sarkisov (MS) approximations. Virial equation of state has been computed in both…
The hard-sphere potential has become a cornerstone in the study of both molecular and complex fluids. Despite its mathematical simplicity, its implementation in fixed time-step molecular simulations remains a formidable challenge due to the…
We discuss structural and thermodynamical properties of Baxter's adhesive hard sphere model within a class of closures which includes the Percus-Yevick (PY) one. The common feature of all these closures is to have a direct correlation…
Existence, uniqueness and stability of solutions is studied for a set of nonlinear fixed point equations which define self-consistent hydrostatic equilibria of a classical continuum fluid that is confined inside a container and in contact…
We use the extension of scaled particle theory (ESPT) presented in the accompanying paper [Stillinger et al. J. Chem. Phys. xxx, xxx (2007)] to calculate numerically pair correlation function of the hard sphere fluid over the density range…
We discuss phase coexistence of polydisperse colloidal suspensions in the presence of adhesion forces. The combined effect of polydispersity and Baxter's sticky-hard-sphere (SHS) potential, describing hard spheres interacting via strong and…
The properties of the ground state of liquid $^4$He are studied using a correlated basis function of the form $\prod_{i<j} \psi(r_{ij})$. Here, $\psi(r)$ is chosen as the exact solution of the Schr\"{o}dinger equation for two $^4$He atoms.…
We derive an exact equation for density changes induced by a general external field that corrects the hydrostatic approximation where the local value of the field is adsorbed into a modified chemical potential. Using linear response theory…
We apply connectedness percolation theory to fractal liquids of hard particles, and make use of a Percus-Yevick liquid state theory combined with a geometric connectivity criterion. We find that in fractal dimensions the percolation…
The asymptotic expansion method is extended by using currently available accurate values for the first ten virial coefficients for hard sphere fluids. It is then used to yield an equation of state for hard sphere fluids, which accurately…
We solve the Percus-Yevick equation in two dimensions by reducing it to a set of simple integral equations. We numerically obtain both the pair correlation function and the equation of state for a hard disc fluid and find good agreement…
