ABSTRACT

There exist a number of other models at high energies, such as the exact second-Born approximation corrected for the proper boundary conditions in terms of the free-particle Green’s operator G0+, the continuum distorted wave (CDW) method and its ‘derivatives’ known as the hybrid-type models that are called the CDW-eikonal initial state (CDW-EIS), the CDW-eikonal final state and the Born distorted wave. The CDW method, as one of the most frequently employed high-energy models, shows an undeniable success in a large number of tests against the measurements. The CDW-EIS and CDW models coincide with each other in the exit channel.
