The formalism of the folding model is used to develop a calculational scheme which permits the simple calculation of the contribution of exchange and multiparticle correlations to the interaction of low-energy nucleons with deformed nuclei. The differential cross sections for elastic and inelastic (with excitation of the 2/sup +//sub 1/ state) scattering of protons with energies 23.95 and 17.5 MeV by the target nucleus /sup 26/Mg are calculated. A satisfactory description of the experimental angular distributions is obtained. The role of exchange and multiparticle correlations in the formation of the cross sections for large-angle scattering is studied. The contribution of the direct mechanism to the scattering of 9.1-MeV protons on /sup 26/Mg is calculated. The relation of the quadrupole deformation of the nucleus and the potential with the proton inelastic-scattering mechanisms is analyzed.
