Proton and [alpha]-particle spectral shapes and multiplicities have been measured in coincidence with evaporation residues from 145 to 220 MeV [sup 28]Si+[sup 165]Ho and 115 and 140 MeV [sup 16]O+[sup 197]Au,[sup 208]Pb fusion reactions. Evaporation residues were separated using an electrostatic deflector and detected with large area surface barrier detectors. Light charged particles were detected at forward and backward angles with 14 single NaI detectors. In the context of the statistical model, the charged particle spectra provide information about the shapes and level densities of the emitting systems. Deformed emitters are inferred, and to a varying degree, an energy-dependent level density parameter is compatible with the data in each of the three cases. Implications for current fusion and fission dynamics studies are discussed.
