Eikonal Scattering of Two D0-branes with Graviton Emission

RESUMO

We study the emission of a massless closed-string state in the scattering of two D0-branes using the boundary-state formalism. We compute the corresponding five-point amplitudes for graviton and dilaton emission in bosonic string theory and in type II superstring theory, and analyze their field-theory limit. For nonzero impact parameter, the resulting amplitudes are reproduced by an independent calculation in the worldline formulation of the corresponding low-energy theory.
