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 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…
We exactly calculate the fourth virial coefficient for hard spheres in even dimensions for D=4,6,8,10, and 12.
The fourth virial coefficient is calculated exactly for a fluid of hard spheres in odd dimensions up to 11.
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…
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…
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,…
Virial expansion is a traditional approach in statistical mechanics that expresses thermodynamic quantities, such as pressure $p$, as power series of density or chemical potential. Its radius of convergence can serve as a potential…
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…
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…
Virial coefficients for the two-dimensional hard-disk fluid, when expressed in powers of density relative to maximum close packing, lead to an accurate closed equation-of-state for the equilibrium fluid, analogous to that recently found for…
A singularity is said to be weakly-exceptional if it has a unique purely log terminal blow up. This is a natural generalization of the surface singularities of types $D_{n}$, $E_{6}$, $E_{7}$ and $E_{8}$. Since this idea was introduced,…
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…
In this paper we prove birational superrigidity of finite covers of degree $d$ of the $M$-dimensional projective space of index 1, where $d\geqslant 5$ and $M\geqslant 10$, with at most quadratic singularities of rank $\geqslant 7$,…
We study effective divisors $D$ on surfaces with $H^0(\mathcal O_D)=k$ and $H^1(\mathcal O_D)=H^0(\mathcal O_D(D))=0$. We give a numerical criterion for such divisors, following a general investigation of negativity, rigidity and…
We propose a new semi empirical expression of the virial coefficients for a hard sphere fluid which is valid in the disordered phase over the whole density range. The results are in good agreement with the numerical data and better than…
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 evidence via a computation in the reciprocal space the asymptotic behaviour of the high order virial coefficients for a hard sphere system. These coefficients, if their order is high enough, are those of a geometric series. We thus are…
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.…
