Abstract
In Chap. 2 we have seen that many structural arrangements of atoms and molecules are possible, corresponding to the various phases of condensed matter. A common feature is that the average density is generally constant in each case: equilibrium thermodynamic phases are almost always spatially homogeneous. From a purely geometric point of view, therefore, different phases represent the outcomes of different space-filling exercises, the building blocks being atoms, molecules or even clusters of atoms and molecules.
