Abstract
Masses and charges have been identified for the light fragments (6<A<40) produced in the reactions (40Ar+58Ni), (40Ar+64Ni), (40Ca+58Ni) and (40Ca+64Ni). From the study ofN and Z distributions, it has been shown that the ratioN/Z of thecomposite system has a dominant role in the determination of theN/Z of the product. Then there should be at least a charge equilibration during the damped collision.
