Abstract We propose to perform a Penning-trap mass measurement of 79Cu. This exotic N = 50 isotone is the last frontier before the doubly-magic 78Ni and will greatly improve our knowledge of shell evolution. In the same run, we propose 7778Cu mass measurements, as well as the search for a possible isomer in 76mCu. The data will help to clarify the structure of the odd proton in the Cu isotopes, the influence on the Z = 28 proton core of the νg9/2 orbital filling and the impact of the proton-neutron residual interaction on the strength of the N = 50 shell closure.
