Abstract
We studied the sequential binary decay of the systems 32S+45Sc, 76Ge, 89Y, 59Co, 63Cu and 19F+63Cu induced by collisions at $\simeq6$ MeV$\cdot$A. The two stages of the process have reaction-times compatible with the dynamics of different mechanisms. The study of the excitation energy partition shows that the reaction mechanism of the first step has influence on the de-excitation of the primary fragments producing two decay components which have different time scale.
