Abstract
It is shown that the structure g(r) of liquid neon can be regarded as resulting from an effective interatomic pair-potential of Lennard-Jones 12-6 form with parameters from thermodynamics, provided due account is taken of quantum corrections. Liquid neon therefore 'corresponds; with liquid argon and is not anomalous, as appeared previously to be the case. The novel and useful observation is made that the quantum corrections to g(r) tend to be small for large r.
