Quasi-chemical Theory for the Statistical Thermodynamics of the Hard Sphere Fluid

Lawrence R. Pratt, Randall A. LaViolette, Maria A. Gomez +1

We develop a quasi-chemical theory for the study of packing thermodynamics in dense liquids. The situation of hard-core interactions is addressed by considering the binding of solv…
