Which consequence results when an uncorrected numerical instability exceeds floating-point range constraints in an iterative molecular dynamics wavefunction calculation?

💡 Explanation

The finite precision of the floating point representation truncates the real number value causing artifacts, leading to spurious system heating through the run-away phenomenon because of excess kinetic energy being introduced at each time-step; therefore the stability fails, rather than conserving properties as intended.
