Abstract Reaction product cross sections have been measured for reactions of4He projectile with54,56Fe,58Ni and59Co targets in the bombarding energy range 14–27 MeV. The cross-section-weighted average charge $$\overline {\Delta Z}$$ and mass $$\overline {\Delta A}$$ removed from the compound system were deduced and compared with results reported for heavy-ion induced reactions. Variation of $$\overline {\Delta A}$$ with E CN * is independent of the initial angular momentum of compound nucleus in theA=60 mass region in contrary to the rare-earth region. This would suggest a strong angular momentum removal from the compound nucleus by evaporation of particles forA≈60 nuclei. The average evaporated charge $$\overline {\Delta Z}$$ depends on both the CN excitation energy E CN * and the compound nucleusN andZ numbers. The $$\overline {\Delta A}$$ and $$\overline {\Delta Z}$$ dependence on excitation energy and the projectile-target combination can be understood in terms of the statistical model calculations.
