In this letter we present a new solution to this problem, where we represent the fermionic determinant using (n) pseudofermion fields, each with an (\nth) root kernel. We implement this within the framework of the Rational Hybrid Monte Carlo (RHMC) algorithm. We compare this algorithm with other recent methods in this area and find it is competitive with them.
