Target and target-like ejectiles emitted forward from {sup 93}Nb-beam bombardment of thin {sup 50}Ti targets were investigated at sub- and near-barrier energies using a magnetic spectrograph. Reaction products from three single-nucleon-transfer and seven multinucleon-transfer channels were observed. Multinucleon-transfer products were observed with a sharp onset only for those collisions with apsidal distances smaller than about 12.6 fm, while single-nucleon-transfer products were observed throughout the apsidal distance range studied. Average {ital Q} values of the multinucleon-transfer-reaction products are much more negative than the respective optimum values. These results suggest the formation of a neck at subbarrier energies.
