A. M. VORA1,*
The present article deals with the liquid alkaline-earth metals are treated as a system of Coulombically interacting charged hard spheres (CHS) in the background of conduction electrons. The structure factor is evaluated on the basis of the linear scattering optimization approximation by considering the weak coupling of the valance electrons to the ions. To describe electron-ion interaction, it is used the well known Ashcroft’s empty core (EMC) single parametric model potential along with the most recent local field correction function due to Sarkar et al. Qualitative agreement between presently computed data and experimental findings is established.

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
