Elastic differential cross sections of [sup 11]Li on a proton target recently observed at [ital E][sub lab]/[ital A]=62 MeV are analyzed in a ([sup 9]Li+[ital n]+[ital n])-[ital p] four-body model to take the halo structure of [sup 11]Li into consideration. The eikonal and adiabatic approximations are employed to derive the optical potential that includes the breakup effect of halo neutrons to continuum states. It is shown that both the breakup of [sup 11]Li and the exchange force of the [ital n]-[ital p] interaction lead to the reduced cross sections that are in satisfactory agreement with experiment with no adjustable parameters.
