Cluster Emission of $^8$Be in the $^{28}$Si+$^{12}$C Fusion Reaction at Low Temperature
Inclusive as well as exclusive energy spectra of the light charged particles emitted in the $^{28}$Si ($E_{lab}$=112.6 MeV) + $^{12}$C reaction has been measured using the {\bf ICARE} multidetector array. The data have been analysed by statistical-model calculations using a spin-dependent level density parametrization. The results suggest significant deformation effects at high spin and cluster emission of $^8$Be.
