Radial distribution function — In computational mechanics and statistical mechanics, a radial distribution function (RDF), g ( r ), describes how the density of surrounding matter varies as a function of the distance from a distinguished point.Suppose, for example, that we… … Wikipedia
Pair distribution function — The atomic pair distribution function (PDF) describes the density of interatomic distances in a material. Of special practical importance is the radial pair distribution function, which is independent of orientation. It is a major descriptor for… … Wikipedia

Correlation function (statistical mechanics) — For other uses, see Correlation function (disambiguation). In statistical mechanics, the correlation function is a measure of the order in a system, as characterized by a mathematical correlation function, and describes how microscopic variables… … Wikipedia
