Abstract

This experiment has been done with a view to studying complete and incomplete fusion in heavy-ion-induced reactions. Excitation functions for several reactions induced by ${}^{12}{\mathrm{C}}^{5+}$ ions on ${}^{165}\mathrm{Ho}$ at incident energies from 55 to 80 MeV have been measured using the activation technique. The analysis of the data has been done using the codes ALICE-91 and CASCADE. The parameter ${F}_{\ensuremath{\theta}},$ the ratio of actual moment of inertia to the rigid-body value, has been found to play an important role in the calculations done by the code CASCADE. Significant contributions from both the complete and the incomplete fusion channels have been observed. Further, in the case of the reaction $(\mathrm{C},p3n)$ considerable contribution from the decay of higher charge isobar precursor has been observed.
