The static properties of the Yukawa fluids are investigated in a wide range of parameters: the value of the effective nonideality parameter Γ* ranged from 0 to 155, and the value of the screening parameter κ ranged from 1 to 5. Investigations are carried out by the Brownian dynamics method and by solving the Ornstein–Zernike (OZ) equation in the hypernetted chain (HNC) approximation. The analysis of the structure of the fluids shows that they are locally ordered for large values of Γ*; however, no translationally ordered structures are observed. Isothermal compressibility exhibits nonmonotonic behavior as a function of Γ*. The possibility of a phase transition of the fluid to a vitreous state is discussed.
