The Ballone-Pastore-Galli-Gazzillo (BPGG) closure relation (1986) (Eq. 3.8 Ref. 1), originally developed for hard sphere mixtures, is given by


where s = 15 / 8. It has its origin in the Martynov-Sarkisov closure (s = 2). The value of s can be determined by a self-consistency condition. Notice that for s = 1 the BPGG approximation reduces to the hypernetted chain closure.
