We study the penetrable sphere (alias square mound) model in the fluid phase by means of the virial expansion, molecular dynamics simulations, and Ornstein-Zernike integral equation. The virial coefficients up to B(8) are expressed as polynomials in the Boltzmann factor with the coefficients calculated by a Monte Carlo integration. New data for pressure and internal energy are obtained by molecular dynamics simulations with attention paid to finite-size errors and properties of the Andersen thermostat. The data and virial coefficients are correlated by a formula for the Helmholtz free energy. We also propose a new closure for the Ornstein-Zernike equation and test several other closures.
