Cross section of different evaporation residue have been calculated in 112Sn+16O (Neuron/Proton (N/Z) of the 112Sn target is 1.24) and124Sn+16O reaction (N/Z of the 124Sn is 1.48) with beam energy of 80 MeV using statistical model calculation code PACE4. These calculations predicts that the proton emission channels are predicted to be dominant when the N/Z ratio is small (i.e in the first reaction) whereas the neutron emission outgoing channels dominant in the second reaction when N/Z is large. Experimental phenomenon also revealed the fact that in order to populate the proton or neutron reach nucleus we have to choose the target material accordingly.
