摘要
We discuss the application of a recently proposed thermodynamically self-consistent integral equation, the variational modified hypernetted chain (VMHNC) approximation, to the study of the structural properties of liquid metals. We show a comparison between the structure of the liquid alkali metals, as obtained within the VMHNC, and molecular dynamics stimulations carried out using the same potentials and parametrization. The results show that the VMHNC is an accurate approximation for the study of the structure of liquid metals.
