Abstract
We locate the glass transition line of the charged-hard-sphere system in the density-temperature plane, using a mean-field hypernetted chain approximation within the replica-symmetry-breaking scenario [S. Franz and G. Parisi, Phys. Rev. Lett. 79 (1997) 2486. [11]]. Our results demonstrate a dominant role of the steric factor and explain the ineffectiveness of purely Coulombic interactions in driving phase transitions.
