Abstract

ABSTRACTThe Generalized Mean Spherical Approximation for a hard-sphere fluid developed by Waisman [E. Waisman, Mol. Phys. 25, 45 (1973)] over forty years ago is revisited. The relatively recent [C. F. Tejero and M. López de Haro, Mol. Phys. 105, 2999 (2007)] completely analytical results for the direct correlation function of such approximation are used to assess the simplification introduced by Henderson and Blum [D. Henderson and L. Blum, Mol. Phys. 32, 1627 (1976)]. The conclusion is reached that such simplification is a rather valuable compromise between simplicity and accuracy.
