Correlation energy, pair-distribution functions and static structure factors of jellium

Abstract

We discuss and clarify a simple and accurate interpolation scheme for the spin-resolved electron static structure factor (and corresponding pair correlation function) of the 3D unpolarized homogeneous electron gas which, along with some analytic properties of the spin-resolved pair-correlation functions, we have just published. We compare our results with the very recent spin-resolved scheme by Schmidt et al., and focus our attention on the spin-resolved correlation energies and the high-density limit of the correlation functions.
