Multi-step effects between bound, resonant, and non-resonant states have been investigated by the continuum-discretized coupled-channels method (CDCC). In the CDCC, a resonant state is treated as multiple states fragmented in a resonance energy region, although it is described as a single state in usual coupled-channel calculations. For such the fragmented resonant states, one-step and multi-step contributions to the cross sections should be carefully discussed because the cross sections obtained by the one-step calculation depend on the number of those states, which corresponds to the size of the model space. To clarify the role of the multi-step effects, we propose the one-step calculation without model-space dependence for the fragmented resonant states. Furthermore, we also discuss the multi-step effects between the ground, $2^{+}_{1}$ resonant, and non-resonant states in $^6$He for proton inelastic scattering.

We investigate the contribution of the $2^{+}_{2}$ resonance in $^6$He to observables via analysis of the $^6$He($p,p$) reaction by using the continuum-discretized coupled channels method combined with the complex-scaling method. In this study, we obtain the $2^{+}_{2}$ state with the resonant energy 2.25 MeV and the decay width 3.75 MeV and analyse contributions of resonances and nonresonant continuum states to the cross section separately. It is found that the $2^{+}_{2}$ state plays an important role in the energy spectrum. Furthermore, contributions of nonresonant continuum states are also important to clarify the properties of the $2^{+}_{2}$ state.
Elastic scattering observables (differential cross section and analyzing power) are calculated for the reaction $^6$He(p,p)$^6$He at projectile energies starting at 71 MeV/nucleon. The optical potential needed to describe the reaction is based on a microscopic Watson first-order folding potential, which explicitly takes into account that the two neutrons outside the $^4$He-core occupy an open p-shell. The folding of the single-particle harmonic oscillator density matrix with the nucleon-nucleon t-matrix leads for this case to new terms not present in traditional folding optical potentials for closed shell nuclei. The effect of those new terms on the elastic scattering observables is investigated. Furthermore, the influence of an exponential tail of the p-shell wave functions on the scattering observables is studied, as well as the sensitivity of the observables to variations of matter and charge radius. Finally elastic scattering observables for the reaction $^8$He(p,p)$^8$He are presented at selected projectile energies.
The population of the 9.50 MeV 9/2+ resonance in 13C by single neutron transfer reactions is expected to be dominated by the two-step route through the 12C 2+ (4.44 MeV) state, with another possible contribution via the strongly excited 3- (9.64 MeV) resonance in 12C. However, we find that a good description of the angular distribution for population of this state via the 12C(d,p)13C reaction is only possible when both direct 0+ x g_9/2 and two-step (via the 4.44 MeV 12C 2+ state) 2+ x d_5/2 paths are included in a coupled reaction channel calculation. While the calculated angular distribution is almost insensitive to the presence of the two-step path via the 9.64 MeV 12C 3- resonance, despite a much greater contribution to the wave function from the 3- x f_7/2 configuration, its inclusion is required to fit the details of the experimental angular distribution. The very large interference between the various components of the calculations, even when these are small, arises through the ``kinematic effect associated with the different transfer routes.
Intermediate energy (p,p$$x) reaction is studied with antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (AMD) in the cases of $^{58}$Ni target with $E_p = 120$ MeV and $^{12}$C target with $E_p = $ 200 and 90 MeV. Angular distributions for various $E_{p}$ energies are shown to be reproduced well without any adjustable parameter, which shows the reliability and usefulness of AMD in describing light-ion reactions. Detailed analyses of the calculations are made in the case of $^{58}$Ni target and following results are obtained: Two-step contributions are found to be dominant in some large angle region and to be indispensable for the reproduction of data. Furthermore the reproduction of data in the large angle region $theta agt 120^circ$ for $E_{p}$ = 100 MeV is shown to be due to three-step contributions. Angular distributions for $E_{p} agt$ 40 MeV are found to be insensitive to the choice of different in-medium nucleon-nucleon cross sections $sigma_{NN}$ and the reason of this insensitivity is discussed in detail. On the other hand, the total reaction cross section and the cross section of evaporated protons are found to be sensitive to $sigma_{NN}$. In the course of the analyses of the calculations, comparison is made with the distorted wave approach.
The effects of the final state interaction in slow proton production in semi inclusive deep inelastic scattering processes off nuclei, A(e,ep)X, are investigated in details within the spectator and target fragmentation mechanisms; in the former mechanism, the hard interaction on a nucleon of a correlated pair leads, by recoil, to the emission of the partner nucleon, whereas in the latter mechanism proton is produced when the diquark, which is formed right after the visrtual photon-quark interaction, captures a quark from the vacuum. Unlike previous papers on the subject, particular attention is paid on the effects of the final state interaction of the hadronizing quark with the nuclear medium within an approach based upon an effective time-dependent cross section which combines the soft and hard parts of hadronization dynamics in terms of the string model and perturbative QCD, respectively. It is shown that the final state interaction of the hadronizing quark with the medium plays a relevant role both in deuteron and complex nuclei; nonetheless, kinematical regions where final state interaction effects are minimized can experimentally be selected, which would allow one to investigate the structure functions of nucleons embedded in the nuclear medium; likewise, regions where the interaction of the struck hadronizing quark with the nuclear medium is maximized can be found, which would make it possible to study non perturbative hadronization mechanisms.
