We derive new Hamiltonians for the sd shell, USDA and USDB, based on a renormalized G matrix with linear combinations of two-body matrix elements adjusted to fit a complete set of data for experimental binding energies and excitation energies for the sd-shell nuclei. These Hamiltonians provide a new level of precision for realistic sd-shell wave functions for applications to nuclear structure and nuclear astrophysics.
