Multidensity Ornstein-Zernike equation

However, the partials h j, and the partials of the direet eorrelation funetion Cij, the latter defined as the subsets of graphs in without bridge points, are related via a Wertheim-type multidensity Ornstein-Zernike equation... 

The multidensity Ornstein-Zernike equation (70) and the self-consistency relation (71) actually describe a nonuniform system. To solve these equations numerically for inhomogeneous fluids one needs only an appropriate generalization of the Lowett-Mou-Buff-Wertheim equation (14). Such a generalization, employing the concept of the partial correlation function has been considered in Refs. 34,35. 

These two equations represent the assoeiative analogue of Eq. (14) for the partial one-partiele eavity funetion. It is eonvenient to use equivalent equations eontaining the inhomogeneous total pair eorrelation funetions. Similarly to the theory of inhomogeneous nonassoeiating fluids, this equiva-lenee is established by using the multidensity Ornstein-Zernike equation (68). Eq. (14) then reduees to [35]... 

As in Sec. II, we consider a mixture composed of a dimerizing one-component fluid and a giant hard sphere [21,119]. We begin with the multidensity Ornstein-Zernike equation for the mixture... 

Eq. (101) is the multidensity Ornstein-Zernike equation for the bulk, one-component dimerizing fluid. Eqs. (102) and (103) are the associative analog of the singlet equation (31). The last equation of the set, Eq. (104), describes the correlations between two giant particles and may be important for theories of colloid dispersions. The partial correlation functions yield three... 

The so-called product reactant Ornstein-Zernike approach (PROZA) for these systems was developed by Kalyuzhnyi, Stell, Blum, and others [46-54], The theory is based on Wertheim s multidensity Ornstein-Zernike (WOZ) integral equation formalism [55] and yields the monomer-monomer pair correlation functions, from which the thermodynamic properties of the model fluid can be obtained. Based on the MSA closure an analytical theory has been developed which yields good agreement with computer simulations for short polyelectrolyte chains [44, 56], The theory has been recently compared with experimental data for the osmotic pressure by Zhang and coworkers [57], In the present paper we also show some preliminary results for an extension of this model in which the solvent is now treated explicitly as a separate species. In this first calculation the solvent molecules are modelled as two fused charged hard spheres of unequal radii as shown in Fig. 1 [45],...
