The Radial Distribution Functions of Water as Derived from Radiation Total Scattering Experiments: Is There Anything We Can Say for Sure?

Table 2

Coordination numbers for each of the OO, OH, and HH radial distribution functions extracted by EPSR from experiments SLS-01, SLS-07, NIM-10-3, NIM-11-3, NIM-11-5, and NIM-12-3. The numbers in parenthesis refer to the maximum distance up to which the coordination number is calculated, 𝑟_max in (7).
