Atomic Radii in Crystals
Abstract
A set of empirical atomic radii has been set up, such that the sum of the radii of two atoms forming a bond in a crystal or molecule gives an approximate value of the internuclear distance. These radii give fair agreement with experiment in over 1200 cases of bonds in all types of crystals and molecules, with an average deviation of about 0.12 Å. The radii are similar to a set suggested by W. L. Bragg in 1920, but refined by consideration of many more crystals. They hold for covalent, metallic, and ionic binding equally well. These radii agree remarkably well with calculated radii of maximum radial charge density in the outermost shells of the atoms, as taken from previously unpublished calculations of D. Liberman, J. T. Waber, and D. T. Cromer, of the Los Alamos Laboratory, by relativistic self-consistent field calculation, using the exchange correction suggested in 1951 by the present author. There is discussion of the probable reason for this agreement, and discussion of the relation of these radii to the ionic radii of Pauling, Zachariasen, and others, and the tetrahedral and metallic radii of Pauling.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
