The second virial coefficient is usually written as B or as Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle B_2} . The second virial coefficient represents the initial departure from ideal-gas behaviour. The second virial coefficient, in three dimensions, is given by

Notice that the expression within the parenthesis of the integral is the Mayer f-function.
Isihara-Hadwiger formula
The Isihara-Hadwiger formula was discovered simultaneously and independently by Isihara [1] [2] [3] and the Swiss mathematician Hadwiger in 1950 [4] [5] [6] The second virial coefficient for any hard convex body is given by the exact relation
