Abstract

Different approaches to the solution of restricted open-shell equations are summarized and a general implementation for the first excited singlet state in the Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics code (CPMD) is presented. For molecular dynamics simulations where energy conservation is an important criterion, different choices of parameters are necessary depending on the particular chemical situation.
