The scattering of two bosonic nucleons is studied using the Malfliet-Tjon Potential. The Lippmann-Schwinger equation for the t-matrix in three dimensional space is solved directly without angular momentum decomposition. The energy dependence of the half-shell t-matrix is studied between 50 and 1000 MeV scattering energy and compared to results obtained from summing the partial wave solutions. Furthermore, differential cross sections for scattering of distinguishable as well as identical particles are calculated. The properties of these cross sections as function of the potential parameters as well as the scattering energy are investigated.
