Annotation
This paper presents the results of a theoretical study of cluster formation in condensed media for simple and multi-atomic liquids, as an example. A two-parameter function is proposed by the authors for the density of the probability distribution of clusters, which corresponds to a disordered condensed media, depending on the number of constituent particles. Using this function, the universal mean, most probable, and rms numbers of particles in clusters of noble gases, liquid metals, and some organic liquids were calculated. As well, the cluster component of total entropy for the substances under study was computed.
