✦ Synopsis

Results of a Feynman path integral simulation of the hydrated electron are used to test the theory recently developed for estimating its density matrix directly from its optical absorption spectrum. The results indicate that the theory is reliably applicable to excess electron systems with sufficiently small values of their Heisenberg product.
