Abstract
In this paper we review recent molecular simulation results for the bridge function and cavity correlation function of the Lennard-Jones and soft-sphere fluids. We demonstrate that closures similar to the Percus Yevick (PY) closure are poor at short range and should only he valid for repulsive fluids, Finally, by comparing with our simulation results for the Lennard-Jones bridge function, we show how to rescale the Lennard-Jones bridge function so that it can be approximated with the bridge function for a repulsive fluid.
