The experiments for measuring the cross sections of 35 fission-like residues (with mass numbers 74 ≤ A ≤ 111) and 10 fusion-like residues have been carried out at energies ≈ 72.7 MeV, 80.3 MeV and 88.0 MeV. In this measurement, the recoil catcher technique followed by an off-beam activation γ-ray spectroscopy is used. The analysis of fusion cross-section data with code PACE4 reveals the contribution of complete and incomplete fusion processes in 14N +175Lu reactions. Fission fragments produced as a result of fusion of 14N projectile with 175Lu target have also been confirmed by comparing the values of post-fission observables viz., mass (σA) and charge (σZ) dispersions (deduced from the isotopic mass and isobaric yield distributions) with literature data. In addition to this, the statistical scission-point model based theoretical calculations performed (as per the prescription of Gubbi et. al., [31]) for determining the charge dispersion (σZ) of Br and Kr isotopes validate the experimental values of σZ obtained from the isobaric yield distribution. Thus, the consistency between theoretical and experimental values of charge dispersion (σZ) indicates the production of fission fragments from a equilibrated compound nucleus 189Pt* in 14N +175Lu reactions. In the present work, an alternative method is used for converting isotopic mass distribution into isobaric yield distribution. Furthermore, the experimental finding of mass variance () of fission fragments also complements the investigations of mass (σA) and charge (σZ) dispersions, as width of mass distribution (i.e., mass variance, ) of fission fragments is found to be exponentially function of excitation energy, hence, temperature of equilibrated compound nucleus.
