Planckian Scatterings of Massive Particles and Gravitational Shock Waves

The scattering process of two particles at Planck energies or beyond is calculated using the gravitational shock wave metric for a massive black hole. Then, the scattering between a heavy mass particle and a small mass one is deal with. The cross section contains an extra new term of $σ\propto G^3$ as the correction term of the leading term derived by 't Hooft. The ultrarelativistic limit of the Lorentz boosted Reissner--Norstrom black hole is also calculated.

Gravitational Shock Waves for Schwarzschild and Kerr Black Holes

The metrics of gravitational shock waves for a Schwarzschild black hole in ordinary coordinates and for a Kerr black hole in Boyer-Lindquist coordinates are derived. The Kerr metric is discussed for two cases: the case of a Kerr black hole moving parallel to the rotational axis, and moving perpendicular to the rotational axis. Then, two properties from the derived metrics are investigated: the shift of a null coordinate and the refraction angle crossing the gravitational shock wave. Astrophysical applications for these metrics are discussed in short.
