Abstract
The competition between fission and n, p and alpha-particle emission and fu sion process is studied. The calculations are performed for Yb-160 and Ba-1 26 nuclei at excitation energies from 80 MeV up to about 300 MeV. The nucle ar fission is described by a Langevin equation coupled to the Master equati on for particle evaporation. A significant influence of the initial spin di stribution of the compound nucleus on the prescission particles multiplicit ies is found.
