Rescattering corrections and self-consistent metric in Planckian scattering
Abstract
Starting from the ACV approach to transplanckian scattering, we present a development of the reduced-action model in which the (improved) eikonal representation is able to describe particles' motion at large scattering angle and, furthermore, UV-safe (regular) rescattering solutions are found and incorporated in the metric. The resulting particles' shock-waves undergo calculable trajectory shifts and time delays during the scattering process --- which turns out to be consistently described by both action and metric, up to relative order in the gravitational radius over impact parameter expansion. Some suggestions about the role and the (re)scattering properties of irregular solutions --- not fully investigated here --- are also presented.
