NUCLEAR STRUCTURE STUDY WITH CORE EXCITATIONS IN Ni REGION: FOR fpg9/2 SPACE

Shell model calculations for Ni, Cu and Zn isotopes by modifying fpg interaction due to Sorlin et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 092501 (2002)] have been reported. In the present work, 28 two-body matrix elements of the earlier interaction have been modified. Present interaction is able to explain new experimental results for this region
