We present a calculation of the spin-resolved pair distribution
functions for a homogeneous gas of electrons moving in a plane
with e2/r interactions at coupling strength rs=10. The calculation is based on the solution of a two-electron scattering problem for both parallel-spin- and antiparallel-spin-pairs interacting via effective spin-dependent many-body potentials. The scattering potentials are modeled within the approach proposed by Kukkonen and Overhause to treat exchange and correlations under close constraints imposed by sum rules. We find very good agreement with quantum MonteCarlo data for the spin-averaged pair density. We also find that short-range pairing between parallel-spin electrons is beginning to emerge in the paramagnetic fluid at this coupling strength, as a precursor of a transition to a fully spin-polarized fluid state occuring at stronger coupling.
