Summary and Outlook The properties of exotic nuclei beyond 132Sn are remarkably welldescribed by aunique consistentshell-model Hamiltonianderived from arealistic free NN potential(CD-Bonn) renormalized through the Vlow-k procedure. This outcome gives confidence in its predictive power and may stimulate, and be helpful to, future experiments. At presentno real evidenceof shell modifications in the 132Sn region. It is a great challenge forRIBsto gain more experimental information on exotic nuclei beyond 132Sn. Vietri10
