| Hellmann and Bich have rederived the [[virial equation of state]] from the [[Grand canonical ensemble#Grand canonical partition function | grand canonical partition function]] without restricting themselves to pairwise [[intermolecular pair potential]]s <ref>[http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3626524 Robert Hellmann and Eckard Bich "A systematic formulation of the virial expansion for nonadditive interaction potentials", Journal of Chemical Physics '''135''' 084117 (2011)]</ref>. This leads to expressions for the virial coefficients that, for <math>B_6</math> and beyond, require the evaluation of far fewer diagrams when compared to the original diagrams of Mayer or to the reformulation of Ree and Hoover <ref>[http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1726136 Francis H. Ree and William G. Hoover "Reformulation of the Virial Series for Classical Fluids", Journal of Chemical Physics '''41''' 1635 (1964)]</ref>.
