20. Other forms of predictor-corrector approaches have been suggested earlier [see, for example: W. Schommers, Phys. Lett.43A, 157 (1973);

22. R. Rajagopalan and C S. Hirtzel, J. Colloid Interface Sci.118, 422 (1987)], but the predictors and correctors in such formulations are based on approximate theories. In contrast to these approaches, the OZ-equation-based inversion discussed here can lead to 'exact' results for u(r) as long as the closure equation [Eq. (5)] is used without any approximation. The method suggested by Reatto 18 differs from the earlier ones in this important respect.

34. The two theoretical S(q)'s in Fig. 1 differ from each other more than the corresponding ones in Fig. 4 because of the differing methods of calculation used by Tata 9. The result for S(q) for the Sogami potential in Fig. 1 is based on Brownian dynamics simulations and is 'exact'—as those in Fig. 4, which are based on Monte Carlo simulations. In contrast, Tata use the integral equation theory based on an approximate closure [the so-called rescaled mean-spherical approximation (RMSA);
35. see J P. Hansen and J B. Hayter, Mol. Phys.46, 651 (1982)] for the DLVO potential. Hence, their computed result for the DLVO potential differs from the result for the Sogami potential more than one would find if computer simulations had been used in place of RMSA.
