The hard core Yukawa potential [1] has two forms, the attractive Yukawa potential:

and the repulsive form

The repulsive form has been used to study charge-stabilised colloid-colloid interactions.

Critical point

For the attractive form of the potential, from a study of the law of corresponding states, one has (Eq. 3 in [2])

and (Eq. 4)

The repulsive form of the potential has no critical point.

Triple points

The triple points for this model have been studied by Azhar and co-workers [3].

Virial coefficients

For the attractive form of the potential the virial coefficients have been calculated by Naresh and Singh [4].

Two-term Yukawa potentials

Both the attractive and the repulsive form have been combined to produce the hard-sphere plus two Yukawa potential (H2Y) [6].
