Abstract

Evaporation-residue excitation functions for16O and12C+197Au reactions were measured by means of the activation technique. The competition between evaporation and fission of the compound nuclei was studied by comparing the observed evaporation-residue data with the published fission excitation functions. A newly devised analysis was applied in order to deduce a fission barrier height at a specified angular momentum and determine the relevant fissioning nucleus as well. We found the fission barriers to be 8.2 MeV for the211Fr nucleus at 16ħ and 8.2 MeV for the207At nucleus at 27ħ.
