Three-nucleon force effects in the FSI configuration of the d(n, nn)p breakup reaction

Abstract

We investigated three-nucleon (3N) force effects in the final state interaction (FSI) configuration of the d (n,nn) pd(n,nn)p breakup reaction at the incoming nucleon energy E_nEn= 200 MeV. Although 3N force effects for the elastic nucleon-deuteron scattering cross section at comparable energies are located predominantly in the region of intermediate and backward angles, the corresponding 3N force effects for the integrated FSI configuration breakup cross section are found also at forward scattering angles.
