Abstract: The aim of the work is to expand the approximation of the space-time analysis, which was previously used to describe binary elastic nucleon scattering reactions on nuclei and light ion collisions, to consider coherent effects in heavy ion collisions with three particles in the final reaction channel, two of which are detected. The concept of the corrective phase obtained due to the space-time approach is introduced. In the random-phase approximation, an analysis of the calculation expressions is considered, depending on the degree of resonances overlapping in the compound-nuclear structure.

Keywords: corrective phase, coherent effects, space-time shift, compound-nuclear resonances.
