\textit{Ab initio} quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods in principle allow for the calculation of exact properties of correlated many-electron systems, but are in general limited to the simulation of a finite number of electrons $N$ in periodic boundary conditions.

In the present work, we give an analytical parametrization of the LFC within ESA that is valid for any wave number, and available for the entire range of densities ($0. 7\leq r_s \leq20$) and temperatures ($0\leq \theta\leq 4$) that are relevant for applications both in the ground state and in the warm dense matter regime.

In a classical plasma the momentum distribution, $n(k)$, decays exponentially, for large $k$, and the same is observed for an ideal Fermi gas.

The strongly coupled electron liquid provides a unique opportunity to study the complex interplay of strong coupling with quantum degeneracy effects and thermal excitations.
