Abstract
We demonstrate the feasibility of realistic shell-model Monte Carlo (SMMC) calculations spanning multiple major shells, using a realistic interaction whose bad saturation and shell properties have been corrected by a newly developed general prescription. Particular attention is paid to the approximate restoration of translational invariance. The model space consists of the full [Formula Presented] shells. We include in the study some well-known [Formula Presented] nuclei and several unstable neutron-rich ones around [Formula Presented]. The results indicate that SMMC calculations can reproduce binding energies, [Formula Presented] transitions, and other observables with an interaction that is practically parameter free. Some interesting insight is gained into the nature of deep correlations. The validity of previous studies is confirmed.
