Abstract
We use a density-functional theoretical approach to set up a computationally simple self-consistent scheme to calculate the pair distribution functions and the effective interactions in quantum Coulomb liquids. We demonstrate the accuracy of the approach for different statistics and space dimensionalities by reporting results for a two-dimensional electron gas and for a three-dimensional boson plasma over physically relevant ranges of coupling strength, in comparison with Monte Carlo data.
