Absolute values of differential cross-sections for the formation of ^6,7Li, ^7,9Be, ^10,11B and ¹²C nuclei were measured by the ¹⁴N + ²⁷Al reaction at 129.3 MeV. The analysis of the inclusive energy spectra and angular distributions shows that the carbon and boron fragment production is well described by the projectile break-up leading to three-body final states reactions, while the lighter fragments are due both to the above-mentioned break-up and the evaporation from the ⁴¹Ca compound nucleus.
