The fourth virial coefficient is calculated exactly for a fluid of hard spheres in even dimensions. For this purpose the complete star cluster integral is expressed as the sum of two three-folded integrals only involving spherical angular…
The fourth virial coefficient is calculated exactly for a fluid of hard spheres in odd dimensions up to 11.
We present new results for the virial coefficients B_k with k <= 10 for hard spheres in dimensions D=2,...,8.
Exact results are given for the fourth virial coefficient of hard spheres in even dimensions up through 12. The fifth and sixth virial coefficients are numerically computed for dimensions 2 through 50 and it is found that the sixth virial…
We derive an exact, analytic expression for the fourth virial coefficient of a system of polydisperse spheres under the constraint that the smallest sphere has a radius smaller than a given function of the radii of the three remaining…
We evaluate the virial coefficients B_k for k<=10 for hard spheres in dimensions D=2,...,8. Virial coefficients with k even are found to be negative when D>=5. This provides strong evidence that the leading singularity for the virial series…
Several methods of extrapolating the virial coefficients, including those proposed in this work, are discussed. The methods are demonstrated on predicting higher virial coefficients of one-component hard spheres. Estimated values of the…
The composition-independent virial coefficients of a $d$-dimensional binary mixture of (additive) hard hyperspheres following from a recent proposal for the equation of state of the mixture [Santos, A., Yuste, S. B., and L\'opez de Haro,…
The partition function and the one- and two-body distribution functions are evaluated for two hard spheres with different sizes constrained into a spherical pore. The equivalent problem for hard disks is addressed too. We establish a…
We solve the Percus-Yevick equation in even dimensions by reducing it to a set of simple integro-differential equations. This work generalizes an approach we developed previously for hard discs. We numerically obtain both the pair…
We compute the fourth virial coefficient of a binary nonadditive hard-sphere mixture over a wide range of deviations from diameter additivity and size ratios. Hinging on this knowledge, we build up a $y$ expansion [B. Barboy and W. N.…
Recent values for virial coefficients up to B12, when expressed in powers of density relative to maximum close packing,lead to a closed equation-of-state for the equilibrium fluid. The series obtained converges for all densities;it becomes…
A new method of estimating high-order virial coefficients for fluids composed of equal three-dimensional rigid spheres is proposed. The predicted $B_{11}$ and $B_{12}$ values are in good agreement with reliable estimates previously…
Using the first seven known virial coefficients and forcing it to possess two branch-point singularities, a new equation of state for the hard-sphere fluid is proposed. This equation of state predicts accurate values of the higher virial…
We study the virial coefficients B_k of hard spheres in D dimensions by means of Monte-Carlo integration. We find that B_5 is positive in all dimensions but that B_6 is negative for all D >= 6. For 7<=k<=17 we compute sets of Ree-Hoover…
New proposals for the equation of state of four- and five-dimensional hard-hypersphere mixtures in terms of the equation of state of the corresponding monocomponent hard-hypersphere fluid are introduced. Such proposals (which are…
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…
A new closed virial equation of state of hard-sphere fluids is proposed which reproduces the calculated or estimated values of the first sixteen virial coefficients at the same time as giving very good accuracy when compared with computer…
We study the diffusion equation on the surface of a 4D sphere and obtain a Kubo formula for the diffusion coefficient.
An equation of state for a multicomponent mixture of non-additive hard spheres in $d$ dimensions is proposed. It yields a rather simple density dependence and constitutes a natural extension of the equation of state for additive hard…
