By introducing periodic boundary conditions into Fermionic Molecular Dynamics, it be- comes possible to examine the long-range many-body correlations induced by antisymmetrisation in bulk fermion system. The presented technique treats the spins and the fermionic nature of the nucleons explicitly and permits investigating the dynamics of the system. Despite the increased complexity related to the periodic boundary conditions, the formalism remains computationally feasible. 11th Symposium on Nuclei in the Cosmos, NIC XI July 19-23, 2010 Heidelberg, Germany ∗ Speaker. c  Copyright owned by the author(s) under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike Licence. http://pos.sissa.it/
