Abstract

The “screening and renormalization” approach allows for a mathematically correct incorporation, in three-body scattering theory, of the long-ranged Coulomb interaction between charged particles. It is based on first calculating the transition amplitudes using screened Coulomb potentials. Then, after renormalization the zero-screening limit, leading to the amplitudes pertaining to unscreened Coulomb potentials, is performed numerically. Within this formalism the proton-induced breakup of deuterons is investigated, with the Coulomb repulsion between the two protons taken into account. Kinematically complete differential cross sections in various kinematic configurations are calculated and compared with the results of an identical calculation but for the neutron-induced reaction. In this way information on the size of the Coulomb effects in the proton-deuteron reaction can be extracted. Comparison is made with experimental data at 13.0 MeV projectile energy. In addition, the quality of approximate ways of including the Coulomb interaction is studied.
