Based on the realistic nuclear force of the high-precision CD-Bonn potential, we have performed comprehensive calculations for neutron-rich calcium isotopes using the Gamow shell model (GSM) which includes resonance and continuum. The realistic GSM calculations produce well binding energies, one- and two-neutron separation energies, predicting that ⁵⁷Ca is the heaviest bound odd isotope and ⁷⁰Ca is the dripline nucleus. Resonant states are predicted, which provides useful information for future experiments on particle emissions in neutron-rich calcium isotopes. Shell evolutions in the calcium chain around neutron numbers $$\textit{N}$$ = 32, 34, and 40 are understood by calculating effective single-particle energies, the excitation energies of the first 2⁺ states and two-neutron separation energies. The calculations support shell closures at ⁵²Ca ($$\textit{N}$$ = 32) and ⁵⁴Ca ($$\textit{N}$$ = 34) but show a weakening of shell closure at ⁶⁰Ca ($$\textit{N}$$ = 40). Finally, the possible shell closure at ⁷⁰Ca ($$\textit{N}$$ = 50) is predicted.
