Abstract
The authors have studied, by numerical simulations, packings of equal spheres with radius R, built on the surface of a central sphere with radius R'=kR. The packing fraction of those 2D packings does not vary with k. From that result, the authors derive the mean coordinance and the distribution of values of the coordinance of a sphere with radius R' in a 3D packing of equal spheres with radius R.
