An experiment to investigate the 1H(d,pp)n breakup reaction using a deuteron beam of 340, 380 and 400 MeV and the WASA detector has been performed at the Cooler Synchrotron COSY-Jülich. The main goal was a detailed study of various aspects of fewnucleon dynamics like the three nucleon force (3NF), the long-range Coulomb interaction or relativistic effects in the medium energy region. The relativistic effects and their interplay with 3NF become more important with increasing available energy in the three nucleon system. The almost 4π geometry of the WASA detector provides an unique possibility to study various aspects of dynamics. The studies of the 3N system dynamics in the breakup reaction with BINA detector are continued in the Cyclotron Center Bronowice.
