TLDR
In this paper, a new equation of state for rigid spheres has been developed from an analysis of the reduced virial series, which possesses superior ability to describe rigid-sphere behavior compared with existing equations.
Abstract
A new equation of state for rigid spheres has been developed from an analysis of the reduced virial series. Comparisons with existing equations show that the new formula possesses superior ability to describe rigid‐sphere behavior.

Kinetic theory for plane flows of a dense gas of identical, rough, inelastic, circular disks

TL;DR: In this article, the authors employed the Gradient method of moments to derive balance laws and constitutive relations for plane flows of a dense gas consisting of identical, rough, inelastic, circular disks.

Fluids of dimerizing hard spheres, and fluid mixtures of hard spheres and dispheres

TL;DR: In this paper, the Tildesley-Streett (TS) fitting function was used to simulate a fluid of hard spheres which contains an off-center attraction site, with the range of attraction restricted so that dimers, but no higher smers can be formed.

Entropy difference between the face-centred cubic and hexagonal close-packed crystal structures

TL;DR: In this article, a significant difference in the pressurevolume (P-V) behavior can be detected in the vicinity of a mechanical instability point within a single-occupancy cell model of two close-packed crystalline arrangements, face-centred cubic (f.c.) and hexagonal closed-packed (h.c.).

Analysis of Classical Statistical Mechanics by Means of Collective Coordinates

TL;DR: In this paper, the three-dimensional classical many-body system is approximated by the use of collective coordinates, through the assumed knowledge of two-body correlation functions, and a self-consistent formulation is available for determining the correlation function.

Statistical Mechanics of Rigid Spheres

TL;DR: In this article, an equilibrium theory of rigid sphere fluids is developed based on the properties of a new distribution function G(r) which measures the density of rigid spheres molecules in contact with a rigid sphere solute of arbitrary size.

Equation of State for Hard Spheres

TL;DR: In this paper, simple and exact expressions for the compressibility and pressure equations of state predicted by the Percus-Yevick equation for hard spheres were found for Wainwright and Alder.

Studies in Molecular Dynamics. II. Behavior of a Small Number of Elastic Spheres

TL;DR: In this article, the equation of state and the collision rate for systems ranging in size from four to 500 particles are described, and the dependence of the results on the number of particles is qualitatively discussed and insight is gained as to what is required of more accurate analytical theories.

Fifth and Sixth Virial Coefficients for Hard Spheres and Hard Disks

TL;DR: In this paper, the modified stars contain both Mayer f functions and f functions (f≡f+1) and it is shown that the number of topologically distinguishable graphs occurring in the new expressions is about half the number required in previous expressions.
