We present a practical method to solve the proton-deuteron scattering problem at energies above the three-body breakup threshold, in which we treat three-body integral equations in coordinate space accommodating long-range proton-proton Coulomb interactions. The method is examined for phase shift parameters and then applied to calculations of differential cross sections in elastic and breakup reactions, analyzing powers, etc., with a realistic nucleon-nucleon force and three-nucleon forces. The effects of the Coulomb force and the three-nucleon forces on these observables are discussed in comparison with experimental data.
