Abstract

Much attention has been paid to investigation for nucleon-induced deuteron-breakup reaction. The remarkable difference has been observed between the cross sections for the H(p, 2p)n and H(p, pn)p reactions at considerably low incident energies of protons. The cross sections are enhanced when the relative energy between a neutron and one of the protons becomes small in the final state. In contrast, the enhancement of the cross section due to the final-state interaction is hindered by Coulomb effects when the relative energy between protons becomes small. This chapter explains the role of the Coulomb force in the cross sections for the reaction, calculated with the final-state interaction (FSI) theory, in comparison with data at the incident energies of protons around 46 MeV. Coulomb force has to be included in the calculation of the cross sections for the proton-induced deuteron-breakup reaction, especially in the kinematical region of small relative energies between two protons in the final state.
