Invariant mass measurements and breakup reactions of neutron-rich nuclei have been instrumental in the study of nuclear structure effects at the limit of nuclear existence. The measurements of neutron-unbound states rely on the detection of neutrons in coincidence with fragments at energies between 100 and 1000 MeV/u. Charged particle and γ-ray coincidence measurements yield additional information. The production and detection methods for these experiments and examples of results in light nuclei are presented. Future opportunities with new facilities and the development of new detectors are described.
