Published by the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics (Albert Einstein Institute), Potsdam,...Perturbative Quantum Gravity and its Relation to Gauge Theory- July 31, 2002 In this review we describe a non-trivial relationship between perturbative gauge theory and gravity scattering amplitudes. At the semi-classical or tree-level, the scattering amplitudes of gravity theories in flat space can be expressed as a sum of products of well defined pieces of gauge theory amplitudes. These relationships were first discovered by Kawai, Lewellen, and Tye in the context of string theory, but hold more generally. In particular, they hold for standard Einstein gravity.

The existence of "dark matter", in some form or other, is inferred from a number of relatively simple observations and the problem has been known for over half a century. To explain "dark matter" is one of the foremost challenges today -- the answer will be of fundamental importance to cosmologists, astrophysicists,...http://www.livingreviews.org/lrr-2002-4 |
