Abstract

The temperature dependence of the equivalent hard sphere diameter is analyzed using statistical mechanics. The analysis shows that algebraic equations for the hard sphere diameter which were developed by previous workers are not consistent with the statistical mechanics at high temperature. An algebraic equation which is consistent with the statistical mechanics is developed.
