Abstract: The level schemes and binding energy of ^59-67Cu isotopes were studied by performing large-scale shell model calculations in the f5/2pg9/2 space by employing jun45 and jj44b effective residual interactions. The recent shell model code NushellX@MSU has been employed in the present work in which the core is taken ⁵⁶Ni. The comparison between our theoretical results for the level schemes agreed reasonably well with their corresponding experimental data. The experimental binding energies are very well reproduced by the current shell model calculations.

Keywords: shell model; binding energies; NushellX@MSU.
