The Percus-Yevick approximation is a theoretical framework used in statistical mechanics to describe the behavior of hard spheres in fluids. Specifically, it provides an integral equation that relates the pair distribution function of a fluid (which describes the probability of finding a pair of particles at a certain distance apart) to the density of the particles and their interactions. Developed by Richard Percus and George J.
