Study of three-nucleon dynamics in the dp breakup collisions using the Wasa detector
An experiment to investigate the ^{1}H(d,pp)n breakup reaction using a deuteron beam of 300, 340, 380 and 400 MeV and the WASA detector has been performed at the Cooler Synchrotron COSY-Jülich. As a first step, the data collected at the beam energy of 340 MeV are analysed, with a focus on the proton–proton coincidences registered in the Forward Detector. Elastically scattered deuterons are used for precise determination of the luminosity. The main steps of the analysis, including energy calibration, particle identification (PID) and efficiency studies, and their impact on the final accuracy of the result, are discussed

Experimental study of three-nucleon dynamics in proton-deuteron breakup reaction
Proton–deuteron breakup reaction can serve as a tool to test stateof-
the-art descriptions of nuclear interactions. At intermediate energies,
below the threshold for pion production, comparison of the data with exact
theoretical calculations is possible and subtle effects of the dynamics beyond
the pairwise nucleon–nucleon interaction, namely the three-nucleon force
(3NF), are significant. Beside 3NF, Coulomb interaction or relativistic
effects are also important to precisely describe the differential cross section
of the breakup reaction. The data analysis and preliminary results of the
measurement of proton-induced deuteron breakup at the Cyclotron Center
Bronowice, Institute of Nuclear Physics, Polish Academy of Sciences in
Kraków are presented
Experimental studies of the Coulomb force effects in deuteron-proton break-up reaction at medium energy regime
A set of differential cross-section data of the ^{1}H(d, pp)n breakup reaction at 130 and 160 MeV deuteron beam energies has been measured in the forward polar angles domain. The data were collected with the use of the Germanium Wall (FZ Jülich) and BINA (KVI Groningen) detectors. This part of the phase-space is special with respect to the dominant Coulomb force influence on the system dynamics. The data are compared with the theoretical calculations based on the Argonne V18 potential supplemented with the long-range electromagnetic component. The predictions also include the Urbana IX three nucleon force model. The strongest Coulomb effects are found in regions where the relative energy of the two protons is the smallest
Experimental investigation of the few-nucleon dynamics in deuteron-deuteron collision at 160 MeV
An experiment, with unpolarized deuteron beam of 160 MeV impinging on liquid deuterium target, was carried out using BINA detector at KVI, in Groningen, the Netherlands. Data were collected for the purpose of obtaining high precision differential cross-section for the deuteron break-up reaction. The elastic scattering data were also collected alongside for the purpose of cross-section normalization. We present here a sample of the un-normalised cross-section for the three-body final state reaction
Three- and four-nucleon dynamics at intermediate energies
An experiment, with unpolarized deuteron beam of 160 MeV impinging on liquid hydrogen and liquid deuterium targets, was carried out using BINA detector at KVI in Groningen, the Netherlands. Data were collected for the purpose of obtaining high precision differential cross sections of break-up channels in dp and dd collisions. The elastic scattering data were also collected alongside for the purpose of cross-section normalization. A brief description of the experiment and the data analysis as well as some preliminary results are presented

Investigation of three nucleon force effects in deuteron-proton breakup reaction
Experimental study of the deuteron-proton breakup process was perfomed in KVI Groningen. In this paper current status of the collected data analysis is presented, including preliminary results of the cross section for the sample kinematical configuration
Few-nucleon system dynamics studied via deuteron-deuteron collisions at 160 MeV
Four nucleon scattering at intermediate energies provides unique opportunities to study effects of the two key ingredients of the nuclear dynamics, the nucleon-nucleon P-wave (NNP-wave) and the three-nucleon force (3NF). This is possible only with systematic and precise data, in conjunction with exact theoretical calculations. Using the BINA detector at KVI Groningen, the Netherlands, a rich set of differential cross section of the 2H(d, dp)n breakup reaction at 160 MeV deuteron beam energy has been measured. Besides the three-body breakup, also cross sections of the 2H(d, 3He)n proton transfer reaction have been obtained. The data are compared to the recent calculations for the three-cluster breakup
