A method is discussed to obtain direct data on the structure of clusters and polynuclear complexes of heavy metals both in amorphous and polycrystalline powder samples using the radial distribution function (RDF) G(r) of atoms obtained from an X-ray powder diffraction curve when an appropriate single crystal to determine the structure directly is inaccessible. The RDF is a spectrum of interatomic...
