Towards an analytical theory for charged hard spheres

Ion mixtures require an exclusion core to avoid collapse. The Debye Hueckel (DH) theory, where ions are point charges, is accurate only in the limit of infinite dilution. The mean spherical approximation (MSA) is the embedding of hard cores into DH, and is valid for higher densities. The properties...
