Erratum: "Surface free energy of a hard-sphere fluid at curved walls: Deviations from morphometric thermodynamics" [J. Chem. Phys. 149, 174706 (2018)].

Original article: The Journal of Chemical Physics 149 (17), 174706 (2018) In the original published article,1 there is an error in Fig. 7. That is, the solid blue line showing the third virial coefficient for the surface free energy of a hard-sphere fluid at a spherical wall is too large by a factor of π. The corrected figure is shown below. figure FIG. 7. The cubic curvature coefficient, γsph3, for the hard-sphere fluid at a spherical wall as a function of packing fraction η. The solid circles represent the results for the current simulations. The blue line shows the exact virial expansion up to third order in η [Eq. (23)]. The inset shows the same data at low packing fraction. PPT|High-resolution The corrected figure does not change the discussion or conclusions significantly. The only change is that the penultimate sentence of paragraph 7 of Sec. IV should read “As can be seen in Fig. 7, the simulation data are consistent with the virial expansion results, except for the region between η ≈ 0.08 and 0.1, where small deviations outside the statistical error bars appear."
