Abstract

A reformulation of the Ornstein-Zernike equation permits rapid and simple numerical calculation of the total correlation functions for single and multi-component systems of hard spheres. Such correlation functions permit the application of sophisticated statistical mechanical perturbation theories to more complicated systems than has been possible heretofore.
