Description

In view of the many difficulties with which approximation methods in General Relativity aimed at finding radiative corrections to orbits are faced, it is urgent to treat examples which require as few approximations as possible. For this reason I would like to discuss the problem of the energy loss due to gravitational radiation in the scattering of two bodies of equal mass. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

In Anbetracht der vielen Schwierigkeiten, denen man bei den Naeherungsmethoden in der allgemeinen Relativitaetstheorie zur Ermittlung von Strahlungskorrekturen fuer Umlaeufe gegenuebersteht, ist es notwendig, solche Beispiele zu behandeln, die so wenig Naeherungen wie moeglich benoetigen. Aus diesem Grund wird das Problem des Energieverlustes durch Gravitationsstrahlung bei der Streuung zweier Koerper gleicher Masse diskutiert. (orig.)
