The decay analysis of [Formula: see text]Po[Formula: see text] compound nucleus (CN), formed via [Formula: see text]Ca+[Formula: see text]Gd reaction, with inclusion of additional degrees-of-freedom, i.e., the higher multipole deformations, the octupole ([Formula: see text]) and hexadecupole ([Formula: see text]), the corresponding “compact” orientations ([Formula: see text]), and noncoplanarity degree-of-freedom ([Formula: see text]0), is investigated within the collective clusterization approach. The Quantum Mechanical Fragmentation Theory (QMFT)-based Dynamical Cluster-decay Model (DCM), wherein the point of penetration [Formula: see text], fixed via the in-built neck-length parameter [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text] (equivalently, the “barrier lowering” [Formula: see text]), is used to best fit the channel cross-section ([Formula: see text]) and predict the quasi-fission (qf)-like nCN cross-section [Formula: see text], if any, and the fusion–fission ([Formula: see text]) cross-sections. We also look for other target-projectile (t-p) combinations for the synthesis of CN [Formula: see text]Po[Formula: see text].
