Diffraction Studies of the Structure of Liquids.

“…Mercury has been studied more than any other metal, and the literature contains some lively controversy about the results, especially for the intensity. With the exception of Debye and Menke's (93,94) pioneering work in deriving a radial distribution function for mercury, the early investigations (81,270,288,289,321,322,370,392,393,396) displayed only intensities, to which Bragg's law occasionally was applied to estimate the separation of near neighbors.…”
