Abstract

We exploited a multinucleon transfer reactions with the neutron-rich radioactive beams in order to populate the region around the heaviest doubly-magic nucleus (\(^{208}\)Pb), the region of the nuclear landscape which is rather difficult to reach experimentally. We, thus, recently performed an experiment at HIE-ISOLDE, CERN by using the \(^{94}\)Rb beam onto a thick \(^{208}\)Pb target, and by detecting the reaction products in the high-resolution MINIBALL spectrometer coupled to position sensitive CD detector. With the used method we were able to successfully select the transfer channels of interest and their associated \(\gamma \)-rays. Preliminary analysis shows prevalence of the transfer flux in the direction of the neutron rich Pb isotopes, revealing the mechanism of transfer reactions as a competitive tool for the production of heavy neutron-rich nuclei.
