Transfer reactions are fundamental in nuclear structure and reaction mechanism studies. In heavyion transfer reactions, multiple nucleons can be transferred in a single collision, along with significant energy and angular momentum from the relative motion to the intrinsic degrees of freedom. Such multinucleon transfer reactions are essential for investigating a wide range of topics. This paper provides an overview of recent experiments performed using the PRISMA large solid-angle magnetic spectrometer. These experiments focused on studying nucleon-nucleon correlations with heavyion beams on medium-mass targets, as well as on the production mechanism of neutron-rich nuclei. The studies highlight the potential of transfer reactions for producing exotic species, particularly heavy neutron-rich nuclei.
