We generated/extended low concentration series for the second moment of dis
tances between cluster points A(2) in site and bond percolation on the squa
re lattice and used them to calculate series for the correlation length xi.
We analysed these and other series for their critical amplitudes, and comp
ared them with results from Monte Carlo simulations of triangular site, squ
are site, and square bond percolation. The values obtained from the differe
nt models for the amplitude combination B(2)xi(0)(2)/Gamma(2) (xi(0), Gamma
(2), and B are the amplitudes of xi, the second moment of the cluster size
distribution M-2, and the strength of the infinite cluster P, respectively)
, are all within the range 2.23 +/- 0.10, confirming universality.
