The freezing transition of a hard sphere fluid subject to the Percus-Yevick approximation

A classical density functional theory is applied to the calculation of the fluid-solid transition for hard spheres, using the Percus-Yevick (PY) direct correlation function. Three algebraic conditions are established for the coexistence densities and the Lindemann parameter. The terms neglected in t...
