In accordance with the general methods of an earlier paper (reference 1) an integral equation is evolved for the radial distribution function for pairs in a liquid, and an approximate solution is effected for a system of ``hard spheres.'' The form of the function depends on a single parameter λ which can be related to certain observed physical properties of the liquid and to the diameter of closest approach. The theoretical function has been calculated for a value of λ appropriate to liquid argon at 90°K, and compared to experimental radial distribution functions derived from x-ray scattering data.
