23. The charge non-neutrality at the system boundaries will result in a small electric field, as recently predicted by theory in ref. [16] and also confirmed by simulation of the one-component colloidal system (HYNNINEN A.-P., VAN ROIJ R. and DIJKSTRA M., Europhys. Lett., 65 (2004) 719). The presence of this field, however, will change neither the density field for intermediate z nor the general conclusions of our analysis which assumes local charge neutrality. For the data of fig. 1, our simulation result for the field was smaller than mg/(Z/q + 1)e.
