Résumé : Ar+Ni collisions at 77 MeV/u were studied in the experiment E286 performed at GANIL. An important advantage of this experiment was an application of the neutron detector DEMON for registration of both neutral and charged particles. This feature allows to compare characteristics of neutrons and protons detected by the same detector and gives a possibility to determine the influence of the Coulomb field on the proton emission. Estimation of a charge of the emitting source was performed by comparing energy spectra of neutrons and protons detected under identical experimental conditions. The experimental results were compared with the prediction of the SIMON model [D. Durand, Nucl. Phys. A541, 266 (1992)] and Landau-Vlasov model [Z. Basrak, Ph. Eudes, P. Abgrall, F. Haddad. F. Sébille, Nucl, Phys. A624, 472 (1997)].
