Abstracts

EN

Pair-distribution functions g(r) of the Laughlin quasielectrons are calculated in the fractional quantum Hall states at electron filling factorsν=4/11 and 3/8. They all have a shoulder at a medium range, supporting the idea of quasielectron cluster formation. The intra- and inter-cluster contributions to g(r) are identified. The average cluster sizes are estimated; pairs and triplets of quasielectrons are suggested atν=4/11 and 3/8, respectively.
