Abstract

High-quality vector analyzing power data for the ¹ H(d,pp)n breakup reaction and elastic scattering at 100MeV beam energy have been measured in a large part of the phase space for these processes. The results are compared to theoretical predictions obtained using the charge-dependent Bonn potential alone or combined with the three-nucleon force TM99 as well as to the results of calculations in the coupled-channel approach, with or without the inclusion of the Coulomb interaction. In the studied observables, effects of the 3NF and the Coulomb force are almost absent. The pairwise NN interactions alone are sufficient to describe the experimental results.
