Abstract: (APS)
Using the Faddeev formalism for the three-body problem with two charged particles, with separable nuclear interactions and an approximate form for the Coulomb wave function and Coulomb Green's function, a simplified model is set up for p−d scattering. The differential scattering cross section is calculated numerically for different incident proton energies from 2.08 to 14.0 MeV. The calculations are repeated with the Coulomb potential turned off, and the results are compared with the Coulomb scattering.
