Contents:
The folder Data contains subfolders for each of the simulations performed for the construction of Fig. 3 of the main paper. Each folder name contains the size ratio q, the fraction of large particles x_L, and the packing fraction e in the file name. Note that the fraction of large particles x_L is related to the quantity x_S used in the paper via x_L = 1 - x_S.

For simulations that were run for longer times, an additional folder with the same naming convention is included in the subfolder Long.

Each simulation subfolder includes:

- A coordinate file "last.sph" representing the final configuration of the simulation in plain text format. In this file, the first line specifies the number of particles, the second line the box size and non-additivity parameter Delta, and the remaining lines the coordinates of the particles. Each line containing coordinates consists of a letter indicating particle species (a or b), three spatial coordinates (with the z-coordinate always zero), and the particle radius. All lengths are given in units of the large-particle diameter.

- An image of the final particle configuration "snapshot.png".

- An image representing the associated scattering pattern, obtained by taking the Fourier transform of the particle coordinates and plotting the result as a function of the 2D wave vector on a logarithmic color scale.

Additionally, the main folder contains a set of HTML files ("table_q*.html") that provide an overview of the snapshots and scattering patterns for each size ratio (specified in the file name). The HTML table for each size ratio uses the images from the "Data" and "Data/Long" subfolders as appropriate, and depends on the included "SAtable.css" and "SAtable.js" files. Within each table, clicking on one of the entries will enlarge the associated images.
