Measurement of excitation function in the 16O + 107Ag system at energies above the Coulomb barrier
The decay mechanism of the highly excited compound nucleus 123Cs populated via fusion evaporation reaction of 16O and 107Ag is studied. De-excitation of the compound nucleus via evaporation of p, n, and α particles leads to a population of several neutron-deficient residual nuclei. The excitation function for the 16O + 107Ag reaction has been determined experimentally in the energy range 71 - 80 MeV above the Coulomb barrier. The experimental results have been analyzed within the framework of statistical codes PACE4 and CASCADE.
