Abstract: In this article we analyse how the presence of a pre-equilibrium dipole strength can affect the properties of the giant dipole resonance (GDR) built on hot nuclei. We show that a little amount of GDR phonons still excited when the compound nucleus is formed will substantially modify the gamma-decay from the giant resonance region. Also on the basis of microscopic calculations of the reaction dynamics we propose to study the effect of the N over Z ratio in the entrance channel. This analysis could bring independent information on the problem of the GDR disappearing at high excitation energy.
