For the particular case of hard spheres, the pressure in the virial equation of state is determined

Question:

For the particular case of hard spheres, the pressure in the virial equation of state is determined by evaluating the pair correlation function at contact. Write the pair correlation function as \(g(r)=e^{-\beta u(r)} y(r)\) and derive equations (10.7.12) for hard spheres in one, two, and three dimensions.
