Abstract: The fourth virial coefficient is calculated exactly for a fluid of hard spheres in even dimensions. For this purpose the complete star cluster integral is expressed as the sum of two three-folded integrals only involving spherical angular coordinates. These integrals are solved anallytically for any even dimension d and working with existing expressions for the other terms of the fourth cluster integral we obtain an expression for the fourth virial coefficient B4(d) for even d that sums a finite number of simple terms, with the number of terms increasing with d.
