Abstract
Certain density correlators, measurable via various experimental techniques , are studied in the context of the vulcanization transition. It is shown t hat these correlators contain essential information about both the vulcaniz ation transition and the emergent amorphous solid state. Contact is made wi th various physical ingredients that have featured in experimental studies of amorphous colloidal and gel systems and in theoretical studies of the gl assy state.
