The excitation functions for production of nineteen isotopes of At, Po, Bi, Pb, and Tl in the interaction of [sup 12]C with [sup 197]Au between 57 and 97 MeV incident energy have been measured with the activation technique. The analysis of these data allows one to estimate the cross sections for complete fusion of [sup 12]C and incomplete fusion of [sup 8]Be and [alpha] fragments with gold, and shows the presence of preequilibrium emissions at incident energies only slightly higher than the Coulomb barrier acting between [sup 12]C and [sup 197]Au.
