Multi-nucleon transfer reactions have been shown to be an important tool for high-spin spectroscopic studies of Rn, Ra and Th nuclei with N 134. These nuclei have been populated using the heavy-ion collisions of ⁵⁶ Fe+ ²³² Th, ⁸⁶ Kr+ ²³² Th and ¹³⁶ Xe+ ²³² Th at beam energies 15-20% above the Coulomb barrier. Excited states with spins as high as 28 have been observed using the latter reaction. Yield distributions of binary-reaction products stopped in thick targets have been derived from the analysis of - and - - coincidence events. These yields indicate that there is significant fission of the target-like reaction products. Intensities deduced for products resulting from neutron transfer or proton transfer appear to be Q -value dependent, while processes involving transfers of several protons and neutrons are governed by mass and charge equilibration.
