This study presents an experimental method to investigate the effects of side-collision configurations observed in the synthesis of superheavy nuclei, using lighter, deformed lanthanide targets. The research extends systematic studies of reactions involving beams heavier than 48Ca on deformed targets. Measurements of both the entrance-channel barrier distribution and detailed excitation functions for the xn, pxn, and αxn channels, over a wide energy range, are provided for the 51V+159Tb system.
