Abstract
The structure of salt-free solutions of tobacco mosaic virus particles is investigated using integral equations with the counterions incorporated explicitly. The results for the structure factor are identical to previous studies which used a Debye–Hückel approximation. The results are explained using a model of the particles as polyacids.Keywords
