Four-body integral equations are used to calculate {ital dd}{r arrow}{ital dd} and {ital dd}{r arrow}{ital p}{sup 3}H amplitudes using a single-term separable nucleon-nucleon potential in channels {sup 1}S{sub 0} and {sup 3}S{sub 1}-{sup 3}D{sub 1}. First-order perturbation theory is used to include in the four-body kernel the contribution of {ital d}-wave two- and three-nucleon channel components that result from the tensor force. Cross sections and analyzing powers are calculated using all positive- and negative-parity four-body amplitudes with total angular momentum {ital J}{le}4. Comparison with data is presented.
