  We have applied the quantal hypernetted-chain equations in combination with
the Rosenfeld bridge-functional to calculate the atomic and the electronic
structure of compressed liquid-rubidium under high pressure (0.2, 2.5, 3.9, and
6.1 GPa); the calculated structure factors are in good agreement with
experimental results measured by Tsuji et al. along the melting curve. We found
that the Rb-pseudoatom remains under these high pressures almost unchanged with
respect to the pseudoatom at room pressure; thus, the effective ion-ion
interaction is practically the same for all pressure-values. We observe that
all structure factors calculated for this pressure-variation coincide almost
into a single curve if wavenumbers are scaled in units of the Wigner-Seitz
radius $a$ although no corresponding scaling feature is observed in the
effective ion-ion interaction.This scaling property of the structure factors
signifies that the compression in liquid-rubidium is uniform with increasing
pressure; in absolute Q-values this means that the first peak-position ($Q_1$)
of the structure factor increases proportionally to $V^{-1/3}$ ($V$ being the
specific volume per ion), as was experimentally observed by Tsuji et al.
