Abstract
Differential cross sections for elastic nucleon–deuteron scattering at intermediate energies are calculated by solving the Faddeev equation in coordinate space using interaction models consisting of a two-nucleon potential and three-nucleon potentials based on the exchange of two pions among three nucleons. Attractive effects of the pion-exchange at medium range region in the three-nucleon potential are taken into account by using a larger cutoff mass parameter and by adding phenomenological repulsive three-nucleon potentials as a counterpart. It is shown that these effects increase the cross sections at backward angles, which tends to reduce discrepancies between theoretical calculations and experimental data.
