For a fluid of particles, enclosed in a volume at a given temperature (canonical ensemble) interacting via the `central' intermolecular pair potential , the two particle distribution function is defined as

where , where is the Boltzmann constant.

Exact convolution equation for

See Eq. 5.10 of Ref. 1:
