Reanalysis of ichproductsofbinaryreactio nsof${\mathrm{\$}}^{34}$S, ${}_{}{}^{36}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{S}$, and ${}_{}{}^{37}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Cl}$ beams on ${}_{}{}^{160}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Gd}$ targets. Gates set on known amma$raysin$A∼160 products selected individual react ion channels and identified coincident amma$raysin$A∼36 partner products. Transfers of protons from projectile to target and of neutrons from target to projectile were generally favored, leading to excited neutron-rich light nuclei, including some difficult to reach by other means. Notable results include the observation of amma$${\mathit{raycascadesup}}^{\mathit{t}\mathit{h}\mathit{e}}$high e stknownyraststatesinfour$N=20 isotones. In two N=19 nuclei, ${}_{}{}^{33}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Si}$ and ${}_{}{}^{34}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{P}$, the two N=22 nuclei, ${}_{}{}^{38}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{S}$ and ${}_{}{}^{39}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Cl}$, previously unknown yrast states were identified.
