Abstract :The structure of a hard sphere fluid has been calculated numerically via the Percus-Yevick insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(PY); and hypernetted-chain insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(HNC); closure relations and used as a reference system to calculate the structure of liquid alkali metals under the optimized random-phase approximation insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(ORPA); using the effective ion-ion pair potential formed by the Heine-Abarenkov insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(HA);, and the empty-core insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(EC); pseudopotentials. The results are compared with experimental results. The calculations made by the reference system under the HNC closure relation are in better agreement with experimental results than those found under the PY closure relation.
