A new method to solve the Nd breakup scattering problem in configuration space

ORAL

Abstract

A new computational method for solving the configuration-space Faddeev equations for three nucleon system has been developed. This method is based on the spline-decomposition in the angular variable and a generalization of the Numerov method for the hyperradius. The $s$-wave calculations of the inelasticity and phase-shift, as well as breakup amplitudes for \textbf{nd} and \textbf{pd }breakup scattering for lab energies 14.1 and 42.0 MeV were performed with the Malfliet -Tjon MT I-III potential. In the case of \textbf{nd} breakup scattering the results are in good agreement with those of the benchmark solution [1],[2]. In the case of \textbf{pd }quartet breakup scattering disagreement for the inelasticities reaches up to 6{\%} as compared with those of the Pisa group [3]. The calculated \textbf{pd }amplitudes fulfill the optical theorem with a good precision. 1. J. L. Friar, B. F. Gibson, G. Berthold, W. Gloeckle, Th. Cornelius, H. Witala, J. Haidenbauer, Y. Koike, G.
