Radiative transfer calculations in strong (few $\times 10^{12}$ G) magnetic fields, observed in X-ray pulsars, require accurate resonant differential scattering cross sections. Such cross sections exist, but they are quite cumbersome. Here…

Gravitational scattering in the ADD-model is studied and it is argued that no cut-off is needed for the exchange of virtual Kaluza--Klein modes. By introduction of a small coordinate in the extra dimensions a unique form of the…

Gravitational scattering in the ADD-model is considered at both sub- and transplanckian energies using a common formalism. By keeping a physical cut-off in the KK tower associated with virtual KK exchange, such as the cut-off implied from a…
It has been suggested that a certain class of UV-incomplete quantum field theories can avoid unitarity violation above the cut-off energy scale by forming classical configurations at a length scale much larger than the cut-off length. This…
It has been suggested in arXiv:1010.1415 that certain derivatively coupled non-renormalizable scalar field theories might restore the perturbative unitarity of high energy hard scatterings by classicalization, i.e. formation of…
We derive the path integral action for a particle moving in three dimensional fuzzy space. From this we extract the classical equations of motion. These equations have rather surprising and unconventional features: They predict a cut-off in…
The small angle scattering (by a gravitational field) of classical and quantum particles is considered and compared. It is suggested that the differences in small angle scattering of particles with spin 0, 1, 2 are due to the nonzero…
The differential scattering cross section of the massless scalar field localized on the 3-brane of charged static black holes in the ADD model is analyzed. While results valid in the entire range of scattering angle can be obtained only via…
