Abstract

The multinucleon transfer reaction mechanism was employed to populate isotopes around the doubly-magic ²⁰⁸ Pb nucleus. We used an unstable ⁹⁴ Rb beam on ²⁰⁸ Pb targets of different thickness. Transfer channels were studied via the fragment-γ and γ-γ coincidences, by using MINIBALL γ spectrometer coupled to a particle detector. Gamma transitions associated to the different Pb isotopes, populated by the neutron transfers, are discussed in terms of excitation energy and spin. Fragment angular distributions were extracted, andcompared with the reaction models.
