Abstract
The structure properties of a ferrofluid modeled by a bidisperse system of dipolar hardspheres are studied theoretically for the case of zero external field. Analytical expressions are providedfor the pair distribution function (PDF) and structure factor (SF) to within the first order in numberdensity and the second order in dipole-dipole interaction strength. The influence of the granulometriccomposition on the behavior of the PDF and the position of the first peak of the SF is analyzed.
