Abstract
Two scaling laws are investigated, which are devoted to link the diffusion coefficient to the thermodynamic properties for the athermal hard-sphere system, over the wide range of packing fraction covering the stable and metastable regimes. It is found that the most relevant control parameter is not the excess entropy, but the compressibility factor, i.e. the logarithm derivative of the excess entropy with respect to the packing fraction.
