Bloch-Nordsieck Approximation in Linearized Quantum Gravity

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-09-25 v1

Abstract

The aim of this article is to review Fradkin's contribution in the realm of eikonal physics. In particular, the so-called Fradkin representation is employed to investigate a certain subclass of Feynman diagrams resulting in an expression for the scattering amplitude at Planckian energies. The 't Hooft poles are reproduced.
