By analyzing the time-dependent dipole moment of Na5 and Na9+, we furthermore show that this can lead to an unphysical self-excitation of the system depending on the system properties and the excitation strength. Analytical aspects, especially the connection between the `Zero-Force Theorem' and the `Generalized-Translation Invariance' of the potential, are discussed.5 pages, 4 figuresMaterials ScienceViolation of the `Zero-Force Theorem' in the time-dependent Krieger-Li-Iafrate approximationtext
