It is interesting to compare the [[Virial equation of state | virial coefficients]] of the Carnahan-Starling equation of state (Eq. 7 of <ref name="CH"></ref>) with the [[Hard sphere: virial coefficients | hard sphere virial coefficients]] in three dimensions (exact up to <math>B_4</math>, and those of Clisby and McCoy <ref> [http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10955-005-8080-0 Nathan Clisby and Barry M.
