Abstract
A recently reported method for the Monte Carlo simulation of adhesive particles is applied to a system of adhesive spheres. Results for the pair correlation function and the equation of state are reported. The Percus–Yevick solution is closest to the simulation results at higher temperatures. The critical point determined by the simulation is close to the Percus–Yevick compressibility equation result and is quite different from the Percus–Yevick energy equation result.Keywords
