the pair correlation function can be visualized using e.g. the following script:
- plot_PCDAT
awk <PCDAT >PCDAT.dat '
NR==8 { pcskal=$1}
NR==9 { pcfein=$1}
NR>=13 {
line=line+1
if (line==257) {
print " "
line=0
}
else
print (line-0.5)*pcfein/pcskal,$1
}
'
cat >plotfile<<!
# set term postscript enhanced colour lw 2 "Helvetica" 20
# set output "pair_correlation.eps"
set title "pair-correlation of H2O at 2000 K"
set xlabel "r [Angstrom]"
set ylabel "g(r)"
plot [0:15] "PCDAT.dat" w lines
!
gnuplot -persist plotfile
