45. We used the Verlet-Weiss (VW) correlation functions (Ref. 42) instead of the Percus-Yevick solution (Ref. 44) for the hard sphere reference system since the VW functions better fit to the simulation results, especially at high densities (Ref. 42). It is therefore surprising that the combination of the VW correlations with the RY density functional produces worse results.
