The modified-weighted-density-functional approximation (MWDA) proposed by Denton and Ashcroft, is applied to study the equation of sate and freezing of the hard spheres using the generalized mean spherical approximation (GMSA) direct correlation function (DCF). Because of the attractive tail in the DCF, the perturbation method similar to that introduced by Yoon and Kim is applied. The free energy, freezing parameters and the equation of state of the hard sphere FCC crystal are obtained. The results are compared with some other previous theories and Monte Carlo simulation. Our results are in good agreement with the simulation results.
