Two particle transfer reactions like (t,p) or (p,t), where 2 neutrons are deposited or picked up at the same point in space provide an specific tool to probe the amplitude of this collective motion. The transition operators <f|a+a+|i>, <f|aa|i> are the analogous to the transition probabilities BE2’s on the quadrupole case.
Process amplitude proportional to :
< A+ 2 | a+a+ | A >
Pair correlations result in a constructive interference of reaction amplitudes giving a enhanced two-nucleon transfer.

Reac+ons with different Q values to ensure observa+on across all L-‐transfers.
Neutron-‐adding AND neutron-‐removing reac+ons: mid-‐shell nuclei with par+al
occupancy of fpg orbitals. Measurements of occupancy and vacancy in removing and adding reac+ons should add

Fermi surface seems considerably more diffuse than QRPA. Neutrons from three to four orbits are changing substan<ally between 76Ge and 76Se, while in QRPA the change is almost en<rely in the 0g9/2. Consequences on the calculated matrix for 0ν2β remain to be explored: it is obvious, however, that there are deficiencies in the approach or the method.

• Fluctuations give rise to a vibrational-like excitation spectrum. • Enhanced pair-addition and pair-removal cross-sections seen in (t,p) and (p,t) reactions (indicated by arrows). • Large anharmonicities in spectrum must be accounted for.
