  The effect of polydispersity on the phase behaviour of hard spheres is
examined using a moment projection method. It is found that the
Boublik-Mansoori-Carnahan-Starling-Leland equation of state shows a spinodal
instability for a bimodal distribution if the large spheres are sufficiently
polydisperse, and if there is sufficient disparity in mean size between the
small and large spheres. The spinodal instability direction points to the
appearance of a very dense phase of large spheres.
