Abstract
Quantum molecular dynamics is applied to study the ground state proper ties of nuclear matter at subsaturation densities. Clustering effects are observed to soften the equation of state at these densities. The s tructure of nuclear matter at subsaturation density shows some exotic shapes with variation of the density.
