We modified the original Kuo-Herling interaction in order to account for: • recent revison of the 207Tl mass; • recently located yrast states in 204Pt, 205Au, 205Pb, 206Pb, 206Tl, 206Hg.

New yrast structures identified in 203,204,206,208Hg, 205,209Tl and 210,211Pb form a very good testing ground for the Vlow-k realistic shell model calculations in the regions of neutron-rich nuclei. Calculations with the Vlow-k realistic interaction around 208Pb provide a good description of yrast states in the Z=82 Pb isotopes, N=126 isotones and nuclei with Z<82 and N>126. It is less satisfactory for the nuclides from the region Z<82 and N<126 (having neutron and proton holes) Collaborators B. Szpak, K.H. Maier, R. Broda, W. Krolas, T. Pawlat, J. Wrzesinski, B.
