Abstract
An approach, based upon the Car-Parrinello method, for finding the ele ctronic ground state for a self-interaction corrected density function al theory is described. The influence of the self-interaction correcti on for the ground-state properties and for predicted equilibrium molec ular structures is illustrated with reference to calculations on small clusters of sodium.
