Role of deformation in the decay of $^{56}$Ni and $^{40}$Ca di-nuclei


Abstract in English

Inclusive as well as exclusive energy spectra of the light charged particles emitted in the $^{28}Si(E_{lab}=112.6 MeV) + ^{28}Si,^{12}C$ reactions have been measured at the Strasbourg VIVITRON facility in the angular range 15^0 - 150^0, using the ICARE multidetector array. The experimental energy spectra of $alpha$-particles are generally well reproduced by the statistical model with a spin-dependent level density indicating the onset of defomations at high spin.
