Description

Thirty years after the discovery of the ``island of inversion'' [1] the borders of the island are still not well determined and in particular the evolution of the single-particle structure is not well investigated. Transfer reactions yield important spectroscopic information, i.e. spin and parity assignments as well as spectroscopic factors, complementary to the information obtained in Coulomb excitation [2]. In order to study transfer reactions in inverse kinematics at REX-ISOLDE with MINIBALL a new setup was built covering a large solid angle. This new setup overcomes the limitations of previous transfer experiments performed at REX-ISOLDE [3]. In the first experiment the nucleus $^{31}$Mg which is right on the edge of the ``island of inversion'' was studied via the d($^{30}$Mg, $^{31}$Mg)p reaction. First results of this beamtime which took place at the end of October this year will be shown as well as future plans for transfer experiments at REX-ISOLDE. [1] C. Thibault et al., Phys. Rev.
