Abstract
Abstract Neutron time-of-flight spectra have been measured in coincidence with individual nuclei produced in the fusion reaction 14 N+ 12 C induced by the bombardment of a 12 C target with a 48 MeV 14 N beam. Whereas for the residual nuclei 21 Na(αn), 20 Ne(αpn) and 23 Na(2pn), the observed neutron spectra are well reproduced in intensity and shape by statistical model calculations, this is not the case for the residual nucleus 24 Mg(pn). In order to reproduce the experimental neutron spectra, it seems necessary to assume that around an excitation energy of 16 to 18 MeV in 24 Mg, gamma-ray emission is able to compete favourably against particle decay.
