The formulae is fully consistent with the best computer-simulation thermodynamic and structural data for hard spheres in the fluid region. It can serve as both a direct and convenient testing ground for the integral-equation theories of hard spheres and an input to the reference-hypernetted chain approximation for simple fluids.Read More
