The exact solution for the Percus Yevick integral equation for the hard sphere model was derived by M. S. Wertheim in 1963 [1] (see also [2]), and for mixtures by Joel Lebowitz in 1964 [3].

The direct correlation function is given by (Eq. 6 of [1] )

where

and is the hard sphere diameter. The equation of state is given by (Eq. 7 of [1])

where is the inverse temperature. Everett Thiele also studied this system [4], resulting in (Eq. 23)

where (Eq. 24)

and

and

and where .

The pressure via the pressure route (Eq.s 32 and 33) is

and the compressibility route is
