Three-Body Calculation Of Deuteron–Nucleus Scattering Using Microscopic Global Optical Potential

We test microscopic global optical potential in three-body calculations of deuteron–nucleus scattering. We solve Faddeev-type equations for three-body transition operators. We calculate differential cross section and analyzing power for the deuteron elastic scattering and breakup in collisions with \({}^{12}\) ${}^{12}$ C, \({}^{16}\) ${}^{16}$ O and \({}^{24}\) ${}^{24}$ Mg nuclei, and find a reasonable agreement with available experimental data. Comparison with respective predictions using phenomenological optical potentials reveals systematic deviations in particular kinematic regimes.
