Graviton Physics
@inproceedings{Holstein2006GravitonP, title={Graviton Physics}, author={Barry R. Holstein}, year={2006} }
The interactions of gravitons with matter are calculated in parallel with the familiar photon case. It is shown that graviton scattering amplitudes can be factorized into a product of familiar electromagnetic forms, and cross sections for various reactions are straightforwardly evaluated using helicity methods.
