Light-charged particle decay from the {sup 156}Er compound nucleus, populated by {sup 12}C+{sup 144}Sm and {sup 60}Ni+{sup 96}Zr at the same excitation energy, were measured in coincidence with the evaporation residues. The high energy slope of charged particle spectra for the {sup 60}Ni-induced reaction is steeper than for the {sup 12}C-induced reaction. Model calculations including particle evaporation during compound nucleus formation result in good agreement with the data. This suggests that the difference in the charged particle spectra between the two entrance channels is due to a longer formation time in the {sup 60}Ni-induced reaction. 14 refs., 3 figs.
