We study the damping width of the giant dipole resonance (GDR) built on the ground state and on excited states of 90Zr, which is spherical at zero spin and temperature, and 164Er which is deformed. Neither of these nuclei changes appreciably their equilibrium shape when excited. Nonetheless, fluctuations due to finite temperature produce a...
