Abstract
A semi-phenomenological equation for the radial distribution function of hard spheres is presented and solved. This equation yields results which agree with the ‘exact’ results within 1 per cent. The virial pressure and the pressure obtained from the inverse compressibility formula are consistent within 2 per cent.Keywords
