Three-body Forces, Single Diffraction Dissociation and Shadow Corrections to Hadron-Deuteron Total Cross-Sections

The relationships between the fundamental dynamics and diffraction phenomena in scattering from two-body composite system are discussed. A new simple formula for the shadow corrections to the total cross-section in scattering from deuteron has been derived and new scaling characteristics with a clear physical interpretation have been established. The effect of weakening the inelastic screening at super-high energies is theoretically discovered. A comparison of the obtained structure for the shadow corrections with the experimental data on proton(antiproton)-deuteron total cross sections has been performed. It is shown that there is quite a remarkable correspondens of the theory with the experimental data.
