Abstract
An approach is outline to constructing an optical potential that includes the effects of antisymmetry and target recoil. it is based on the retarded Green's function, which could make it a better starting point for applications to direct nuclear reactions, particularly when extended to coupled channels. Its form retains a simple connection to folding potentials, even in the presence of three-body forces.
