Description
Summary:International audience Recent experimental and theoretical advances have been achieved in the field of multinucleon transfer reactions among heavy-ions. Detailed A,Z and Q-value distributions allow to identify the relevant degrees of freedom acting in the transfer process. The advent of the large solid angle magnetic spectrometer PRISMA coupled to the large $\gamma$-array CLARA was a major experimental breakthrough, as reaction mechanism and nuclear structure studies of neutron-rich nuclei can be performed via $\gamma$-particle coincidences. Examples of recent studies, mainly focused on the reaction mechanism, are presented.
