Abstract
The requirement of asymptotic gauge invariance in the scattering of a graviton by a spinless particle and in the annihilation of two spinless particles into two gravitons is analyzed, and it is shown that the necessary gauge conditions are satisfied by the scattering matrix elements for these processes. The scattering and annihilation cross sections for various graviton polarization states are also obtained.Keywords
