The two-body knock-out reaction 4He(e,ed)d is calculated at various momentum transfers. The full four-nucleon dynamics is taken into account microscopically both in the initial and the final states. As NN interaction the central MT-I/III potential is used. The calculation shows a strong reduction of the coincidence cross section due to the final state interaction. Nonetheless the theoretical results exhibit a considerable overestimation of the experimental cross section at lower momentum transfer. Comparisons with other, less complete, calculations suggest that consideration of a more realistic ground state might not be sufficient for a good agreement with experiment, rather a more realistic final state interaction could play an essential role.
