Dear Prof.

Thank you very much from your reply.
Is your mean that "density=(N/V)*g(r)", where N is the number of total atoms in 
box not in the shell and V is the volume of box not in the shell?

Best Regards
Sara

An RDF is normalised to the density for the entire box, so you should simply be 
using that.

Dear Prof.
 
I am confused about generation a radial density graph (density vs distance from 
center of mass), I know that I should use g_rdf. Then I count the number of 
atoms in the shells around the COM of special group by " trjorder -com -nshell 
-r " , next I use from this formula for compute the density:
density = (dN/4*pi*dr*r^2)*g(r), where dN, dr, r and g(r) are the number of 
atoms in each shell, wide of shell, radius of COM of special group, and 
averaged RDF in each shell, respectively.
While the plot of g(r) is consistent with published previous results but 
density has not consistence with them, I think that I am wrong in compute the 
density.
Please help me.
 
Best Regards
Sara
