title: Accurate bond-valence parameters for the Bi3+/Br- ion pair.
abstract: Using a new calculation scheme, reliable and physically meaningful values of the bond-valence parameters (r(0) = 2.567 A and b = 0.421 A) have been deduced for the Bi(3+)/Br(-) ion pair from the molecular geometry and from the crystal structure of BiBr(3).
