Gravitational Scattering of Light by Light

Abstract
The photon-photon interaction through the creation and annihilation of a virtual graviton is investigated in the center-of-mass system, and is found to have eight times the Newtonian value plus a polarization-dependent repulsive contact interaction. The gravitational scattering cross sections for various states of photon polarizations are obtained.
