Coordination number in liquid argon

Abstract

Structure of liquids is discussed in terms of Voronoi figures and Delaunay polyhedra. Equations of the respective models and precise experimental data recently available for argon lead to calculated values of the coordination number z and the geometric parameter μ. The relation between z and μ is thus found empirically. Further, calculated values of coordination numbers are compared with those coming from thermal-neutron and X-ray scattering data. A selection among the existing methods of obtaining z from the radial distribution function g(R) is made. The method chosen enables one to find z[g(R)] corresponding to the Voronoi structure.
