Electromagnetic and gravitational scattering at Planckian energies.
The scattering of pointlike particles at very large center of mass energies and fixed low momentum transfers, occurring due to both their electromagnetic and gravitational interactions is re-examined in the particular case when one of the particles carries magnetic charge. At Planckian center-of-mass energies, when gravitational dominance is normally expected, the presence of magnetic charge is...
متن کاملElectromagnetic charge-monopole versus gravitational scattering at Planckian energies.
The amplitude for the scattering of a point magnetic monopole and a point charge, at centre-of-mass energies much larger than the masses of the particles, and in the limit of low momentum transfer, is shown to be proportional to the (integer-valued) monopole strength, assuming the Dirac quantization condition for the monopole-charge system. It is demonstrated that, for small momentum transfer, ...
متن کاملScattering at Planckian Energies
We give a systematic analysis of forward scattering in 3+1-dimensional quantum gravity, at center of mass energies comparable or larger than the Planck energy. We show that quantum gravitational effects in this kinematical regime are described by means of a topological field theory. We find that the scattering amplitudes display a universal behaviour similar to two dimensional string amplitudes...
متن کاملGeometry of Scattering at Planckian Energies
We present an alternative derivation and geometrical formulation of Verlinde topological field theory, which may describe scattering at center of mass energies comparable or larger than the Planck energy. A consistent truncation of 3+1 dimensional Einstein action is performed using the standard geometrical objects, like tetrads and spin connections. The resulting topological invariant is given ...
متن کاملOn Super-Planckian Fields at Sub-Planckian Energies
For a light scalar coupled to gravity, I study the gravitational backreaction associated with large field variations. I show a generic obstruction in sourcing a super-Planckian scalar profile without making the whole experiment collapse into a black hole. In empty space the scalar variation obeys an absolute bound, of order of the Planck scale. A Newtonian analysis suggests that inside its sour...
