The results of calculation of {sup 63}Cu + p differential cross sections at incident-proton energies between 10 and 200 MeV and a comparative analysis of these results are presented as a continuation of the earlier work of our group on developing methods for calculating the contribution of nuclear reactions to radiative effects arising in the onboard spacecraft electronics under the action of high-energy cosmic-ray protons on {sup 63}Cu nuclei (generation of single-event upsets) and as a supplement to the earlier calculations performed on the basis of the TАLYS code in order to determine elastic- and inelastic-scattering cross sections and charge, mass, and energy distributions of recoil nuclei (heavy products of the {sup 63}Cu + p nuclear reaction). The influence of various mechanisms of the angular distributions of particles emitted in the {sup 63}Cu + p nuclear reaction is also discussed.
