Abstract
To understand the properties of a nucleus, apart from establishing the interaction between its components, it is necessary to determine the arrangement of the nucleon, i.e. the structure of a nucleus. Presently our knowledge about the structure of nuclei is mostly limited to nuclei close to the valley of stability or nuclei with a deficiency of neutrons. Only recently the availability of beams of unstable ions has given access to unexplored regions of the nucler chart, especially on the neutron rich side. An alternative and often complementary way to study the structure of neutron rich nuclear systems is offered by the use of high intensity beams of stable ions. Binary reactions with stable bems are a powerful tool to populate medium and high spin states in neutron rich nuclei. In this article I will discuss some selected examples which show the high potential of such reaction mechanism for the study of the spectroscopic properties of the neutron-rich nuclear many body systems.
