We investigate heavy-ion multinucleon transfer reactions using the coupled-channels formalism. We first use the semi-classical approximation and show that a direct coupling between the entrance and the pair transfer channels improves a fit…

We discuss models to calculate one- and two-neutron capture reactions on light nuclei. These are applied to calculate the reaction rates of 15N(n,gamma)16N, 16N(n,gamma)17}N and 4He(2n,gamma)6He. The possible astrophysical importance is…

It is well known that in fusion reactions one may get only neutron deficient superheavy nuclei located far from the island of stability. The multi-nucleon transfer reactions allow one to produce more neutron enriched new heavy nuclei but…
