Abstract
The exact solution of the Percus—Yevick equation for the radial distribution function of a classical fluid of hard spheres found by Wertheim is evaluated numerically for a range of number densities. Comparison is made with the radial distribution functions found using other integral equations and Monte Carlo calculations.Keywords
