Motivation

In the context of large extra dimensions, it is possible to have TeV scale gravity [ADD]. Black holes can be formed in colliders for M > M∗ and b ≤ Rs [Argyres et. al. 1998]. Various models have been proposed to compute the gravitational bremstrahlung[ D’Eath and Payne, Eardley and Giddings] (Colliding waves model, ACV model). Alternative methods are desirable.

The terms in this expression are of order γ−1. The terms of order γ and 1 in the two ultra-relativistic expressions have opposite signs and cancel in the sum. This is a general phenomenon of destructive interference related to the gravitational interaction. The two leading powers in the ultra-relativistic expansion of the direct Φ emission are cancelled by the indirect emission due to Φ − Φ-h interaction. The consequence is that the z-type frequency is highly suppressed in this limit, contrary to what one would expect naively.
