Jerome K. Percus
Jerome Kenneth Percus was a physicist and mathematician known for important contributions to statistical physics, chemical physics, and applied mathematics.
In 1958, he published with George J. Yevick a groundbreaking study on the statistical mechanics of classical liquids. They formulated an integral equation that is the foundation for several approximation methods for computing the pair correlation function, and thereby allow the derivation of thermodynamic properties from first principles.
