The incomplete fusion dynamics of 6Li+209Bi collisions at energies above the Coulomb barrier is investigated. The classical dynamical model implemented in the platypus code is used to understand and quantify the impact of both 6Li resonance states and transfer-triggered breakup modes (involving short-lived projectile-like nuclei such as 8Be and 5Li) on the formation of incomplete fusion products. Model calculations explain the experimental incomplete-fusion excitation function fairly well, indicating that (i) delayed direct breakup of 6Li reduces the incomplete fusion cross sections and (ii) the neutron-stripping channel practically determines those cross sections.
