Initial-state distortion and final-state interactions in the 2H(3He, 3He p)n and 2H(3He, 3H p)p reactions

The predictions of two fully antisymmetrized reaction theories (DWBA and PWBA-FSI) are compared with absolute coincidence cross sections for the ²H(³He, ³He p)n and ²H(³He, ³H p)p reactions exhibiting final-state interactions (FSI) and quasi-elastic scattering (QES) both with and without charge exchange. The DWBA theory takes into account both the initial ³He-d and the final N-N interactions, while the PWBA-FSI theory includes only the latter. New QES data at E_He = 35.9 MeV, as well as previously reported 26.8 and 35.9 MeV data, are fitted. The DWBA theory gives good fits, both in shape and magnitude, to spectra showing N-N final-state interactions but gives somewhat poorer fits to QES spectra whose predicted magnitudes are two to ten times too large. The PWBA-FSI theory always predicts cross sections that are too large; however the predicted shapes are about as good as those from the DWBA. The initial-state interaction is shown to affect both the width and position of QES peaks from these reactions.
