We perform realistic shell-model calculations for nuclei with valence nucleons outside 48Ca, employing two different model spaces. The matrix elements of the effective two-body interaction and electromagnetic multipole operators have been calculated within the framework of the many-body perturbation theory, starting from a low-momentum potential derived from the high-precision CD-Bonn free nucleon-nucleon potential. The role played by the neutron orbital 1d5/2 has been investigated by comparing experimental data on yrast quadrupole excitations of isotopic chains north-east of 48Ca with the results of calculations including or not including this single-particle state in the model space.
