  Results of large-basis shell-model calculations for nuclei with A=7-11 are
presented. The effective interactions used in the study were derived
microscopically from the Reid93 potential and take into account the Coulomb
potential as well as the charge dependence of T=1 partial waves. For A=7, a
$6\hbar\Omega$ model space was used, while for the rest of the studied
nuclides, the calculations were performed in a $4\hbar\Omega$ model space. It
is demonstrated that the shell model combined with microscopic effective
interactions derived from modern nucleon-nucleon potentials is capable of
providing good agreement with the experimental properties of the ground state
as well as with those of the low-lying excited states.
