摘要
Direct tracking of the particle positions in a sedimenting suspension indicates that the particles are not simply randomly distributed. The initial mixing of the suspension leads to a microstructure which consists of regions devoid of particles surrounded by regions where particles have an excess of close neighbors and which is maintained during sedimentation.
