Spectroscopy of Ne, Na and Mg isotopes approaching the Island of Inversion

A beam of 26Mg at 160 MeV incident on a thin target of 150Nd was used to initiate deep-inelastic and multi-nucleon transfer reactions. The gamma-decay of the fragments produced in the reaction was studied using the EUROBALL IV array of escape suppressed Ge detectors at Strasbourg combined with the binary reaction spectrometer used to detect the projectile-like fragments. Preliminary results from the experiment are presented.
