Free-energy model for the inhomogeneous hard-sphere fluid mixture and density-functional theory of freezing
Abstract
A free-energy density functional for the inhomogeneous hard-sphere fluid mixture is derived from general basic considerations and yields explicit analytic expressions for the high-order direct correlation functions of the uniform fluid. It provides the first unified derivation of the most comprehensive available analytic description of the hard-sphere thermodynamics and pair structure as given by the scaled-particle and Percus-Yevick theories. The infinite-order expansion around a uniform reference state does not lead, however, to a stable solid, thus questioning the convergence of the density-functional theory of freezing.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
