Soft-core mean spherical approximation: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 12:15, 7 June 2007

Junzo Chihara (along with Madden and Rice) extended the Percus Yevick equation for Lennard-Jones systems to provide a soft-core mean spherical approximation, the SMSA,

B (r) = β Φ_{12} (r) - γ (r) + \ln (1 + γ (r) - β Φ_{2} (r))

where $Φ_{12} (r)$ is the pair potential, $γ (r)$ is the indirect correlation function, and $β = 1 (/ k_{B} T)$ , where $k_{B}$ is the Boltzmann constant.
