The cyclotron at Variable Energy Cyclotron Centre (VECC), Kolkata, has recentlyrecently
completed its 40 years of operation in 2017. During the past four decades, VECC has been …

The influence of α clustering on nuclear reaction dynamics is investigated using the giant
dipole resonance (GDR) lineshape studies in the reactions Ne 20 (E lab= 145, 160 MeV)+ C …

Inclusive energy distributions of isotopically resolved intermediate-mass fragments with Z= 3–
6 have been measured for the reactions Ne 20+ Sn 116 and Ne 20+ Sn 124 at two excitation …

Charged-particle and γ decays in Mg 24* are investigated for excitation energies where
quasimolecular resonances appear in C 12+ C 12 collisions. Various theoretical predictions …

The inclusive energy distributions of the fragments (3⩽ Z⩽ 5) emitted in the reaction 16 O+
12 C have been measured in the angular range 9° to 29°, at the energies 117, 125, 145, and …

The inclusive energy distributions of the complex fragments (3⩽ Z⩽ 7) emitted from the
bombardment of C 12 by Ne 20 beams with incident energies between 145 and 200 MeV …

The fragment emission mechanism in the binary decay of composites formed in the
reactions Ne 20+ Fe 56 and O 16+ Ni 58 has been studied at two different excitation …

It is shown, for the first time, how the exotic shapes due to cluster formation at high excitation
energy and angular momentum are manifested through giant dipole resonance (GDR) …

Deformations of hot composite S 32* formed in the reaction Ne 20 (∼ 7–10 MeV/nucleon)+
C 12 have been estimated from the respective inclusive α-particle evaporation spectra. The …

The two reactions, 16O+ 12C and 18O+ 12C were studied in the energy range between 5
and 10 MeV per nucleon. The binary fragments were identified at the large scattering angles …
