Description of strongly coupled Yukawa fluids using the variational modified hypernetted chain approach

The variational modified hypernetted chain approach as proposed by Rosenfeld [J. Stat. Phys. 42, 437 (1986)] is used to describe strongly coupled Yukawa fluids. The integral equations of interest can be solved using the spherical harmonic oscillator wave functions as a seed. Comparisons are done with simulation results for equation of state and transport coefficients over the entire fluid domain for a wide range of the system parameters.
