Zusammenfassung:Pair correlation and the microgeometry of liquid and amorphous aluminum is calculated by molecular dynamics. The development of fivefold symmetries in microarrangements varied by the applied potential function is investigated. A stronger preference was observed for fivefold clustering using the pseudopotential approximation than in the case of the Lennard-Jones potential. A discussion of this effect is given.
