Abstract
EARLIER, we reported1 the radial distribution function from a random packing of spheres covering the range of sphere separations from 1.0 to 1.3 diameters. Inspection of the data indicated some possible fine structure in the distribution function. The results supplemented those of Bernal2 and Scott3 which covered a far larger separation range.
