    Abstract

    A family of statistical measures is considered based on the Euler-Poincare characteristic of n-dimensional space. These measures represent the information from every order of correlation function. They are sensitive to the morphology of disordered structures. These measures can also be calculated by summing over local distributions. The evolution of measures with density is computed for a range of disordered microstructural models.
