Dear All
I want to calculate the coordination number from RDF by using the following equation:

However, the particles in the system is not evenly distributed. There are three layers in my system which are layered in the order of 1-2-3, the reference particle is located in layer 2, particles coordinated to the reference particle are located in layer 1 and layer 3. How should I calculated the density rho? The volume in
should be the total volume of layer 1+2+3 or just the volume of layer 1+3?
Thank you!
All the best,
Jingjing
