Motivation
• Astrophysical r-process
• Recent experimental progress for neutron-rich nuclei • Lack of shell model effective interactions for exotic regions
Where are exotic nuclei?

Summary
• Improved shell model effective interaction for the p3/2p1/2f5/2g9/2 space in action
• Good agreement between theory and experiment for Ni isotopes indicates reliability of the interaction
• Good description of T1/2 and Pn values for Cu isotopes
• Beta decay data provide important information where nuclear structure data are missing
• Extended studies of Cu, Zn, Ga, Ge
