dc.description.abstract It has been found that quantum mechanical three-body Schrödinger equation can be reduced to a set of coupled differential equations when the projectile can be easily breakable into two fragments when it is scattering on a heavy stable nucleus [1]. This coupled set of differential equations is solved under appropriate boundary conditions, and this method, called CDCC, has been found to be a very successful model in high energy quantum mechanical three body calculations [2]. It can be shown, however, that the coupling potentials in the coupled differential equations are actually long-range [3],[4] and asymptotic out going boundary condition, which is used to obtain elastic and breakup S-matrix elements is not mathematically justifiable. It has been found that the diagonal coupling potentials in this model takes the inverse square form at sufficiently large radial distances [3]and non-diagonal part of coupling potentials can be treated as sufficiently short-range to guarantee numeral calculations are feasible. Therefore one has to justify that the long range part of diagonal potential has a very small effect on elastic and breakup S-matrix elements to show that CDCC is mathematically sound .Although the CDCC method has been successful in many cases, recent numerical calculations[5],[6]indicate its unsatisfactory features as well. Therefore inclusion of the long range part in the calculation is also essential. The main objective of this contribution is to show that the effect of the long range part of the potentials on S-matrix elements is small. en_US
