Description
The scattering of particles by a gravitational shock wave in the framework of string theory is investigated. The shock wave described by the Aichelburg-Sexl metric (that is the gravitational field of a neutral spinless ultrarelativistic particle) is relevant to particle scattering at Planck energy. Base on this, the scattering of a string (in one of its stationary states) by a particle with an energy of the order or larger than the Planck mass was studied. The string is considered as a test string, in other words, its energy must be much smaller than the energy carried by the shock wave. (M.C.K.). 12 refs
