On cancellation of non-adiabatic and off-shell effects in the antiproton annihilation in deuteron

Abstract

As known, some approximate approaches to the hadron scattering from nuclei work rather well far beyond the limits of their applicability. This was explained by cancellation of the contributions (non-adiabatic and off-shell effects) omitted in these approaches. Moreover, in some cases (in particular, for the reaction $\bar{p}d \to e^+e^-n$) this cancellation allowed to derive rather simple analytical formula for the reaction amplitude. Solving the Faddeev equations, we confirm numerically this formula and, hence, the cancellations.
