Abstract
We present a newly enhanced version of the Monte Carlo Shell Model method by incorporating the conjugate gradient method and energy-variance extrapolation. This new method enables us to perform large-scale shell-model calculations that the direct diagonalization method cannot reach. This new generation framework of the MCSM provides us with a powerful tool to perform most-advanced large-scale shell-model calculations on current massively parallel computers such as the K computer. We discuss the validity of this method in ab initio calculations of light nuclei, and propose a new method to describe the intrinsic wave function in terms of the shell-model picture. We also apply this new MCSM to the study of neutron-rich Cr and Ni isotopes using the conventional shell-model calculations with an inert 40Ca core and discuss how the magicity of N = 28, 40, 50 remains or is broken.
