The latter is of significant importance to accurate descriptions of more advanced intermolecular potentials based on perturbation theory, such as SAFT, where a system of hard spheres is taken as a reference system, and the complete pair-potential is described by perturbations to the underlying hard-sphere system. Computation of the transport properties of hard-sphere gases at moderate densities using Revised Enskog Theory also relies on an accurate value for g ( σ σ ) , and the Carnahan-Starling Equation of State has been used for this purpose to large success.
