title: On structural correlations in the percolation of hard-core particles.
abstract: Percolation in colloidal suspensions is sometimes simulated by the random insertion of impenetrable particles into a box. However, configurations generated in this way are not representative of an equilibrated suspension. Here, we quantify the effect of the insertion method on the percolation threshold for systems of spherical particles.
