A quantum mechanical treatment of the relativistic scattering of light by the sun
This thesis concerns itself with the applicability of quantum field methods, in the fixed field approximation, to problems involving a weak gravitational field. After introducing general scattering relations, various classic problems are reviewed to illustrate various approaches to solving scatterin...
