Scalar Bremsstrahlung in Gravity-Mediated Ultrarelativistic Collisions

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

Classical bremsstrahlung of a massless scalar field ΦΦ is studied in gravity mediated ultra-relativistic collisions with impact parameter bb of two massive point particles in the presence of dd non-compact or toroidal extra dimensions. The spectral and angular distribution of the scalar radiation are analyzed, while the total emitted Φ−Φ-energy is found to be strongly enhanced by a d−d-dependent power of the Lorentz factor γγ. The direct radiation amplitude from the accelerated particles is shown to interfere destructively (in the first two leading ultra-relativistic orders) with the one due to the Φ−Φ−gravitonΦ-Φ-graviton interaction in the frequency regime γ/b≲ω≲γ2/bγ/b\lesssim ω\lesssim γ^2/b in all dimensions.
