On the Virial Equation for Molecular Forces, being Part IV. of a Paper on the Foundations of the Kinetic Theory of Gases

(abstract.)
In the preceding part of this paper I considered the consequences of a special assumption as to the nature of the molecular force between two particles, the particles themselves being still treated as hard spheres. My object was to obtain, by means of rigorous calculation, in as simple a form as possible, a general notion of the effects due to the molecular forces. My present object is to apply this general notion to the formation and interpretation of the Virial Equation.
