The cross section curves for the formation, at the barrier, of trans-target isotopes of a heavy element by bombardment of a heavy target with various heavy ions are shown to be similar to the distribution of the neutron number N of a fission fragment around its most probable value . Moreover the isotopic cross sections for one-, two- and three- proton transfer products are found to be in agreement with the Gaussian distribution law of the atomic number Z of a fission product around its most probable value . This situation suggests that the law of transfer of nucleons could be the same in fission and in particular heavy-ion reactions, and that the transfer time could be the same, i.e. of the order of 0.17 yoctosecond.
