Abstract

The scattering process of two pointlike particles at CM energies in the order of Planck units or beyond, is very well calculable using known laws of physics, because graviton exchange dominates over all other interaction processes. At energies much higher than the Planck mass black hole production sets in, accompanied by coherent emission of real gravitons.
