  The production of new proton-rich nuclei in the vicinity of 100Sn is
investigated via multinucleon transfer reactions within the framework of
microscopic time-dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) and statistical model GEMINI++.
The TDHF+GEMINI method has demonstrated the reliable description in the
multinucleon transfer dynamics and the agreement between theoretical results
and experimental data is quite satisfactory in the observed transfer reactions.
We reveal the production cross sections of proton-rich nuclei in 100Sn region
via multinucleon transfer reactions to be several orders of magnitude higher
than those measured via fusion-evaporation and projectile fragmentation
experiments. About 19 new proton-rich isotopes with cross sections of larger
than 1 nb are predicted to be produced in multinucleon transfer reaction of
58Ni with 112Sn. The reaction mechanisms are discussed to lead the experimental
production of these previously unreported nuclei. Multinucleon transfer
reactions provide a fascinating possibility to reach the proton drip-line in
100Sn region and beyond.
