Description

We study scattering processes at the center of mass energies much larger than the Planck scale, and at small impact parameters. Using the S-matrix formalism for gravity, we investigate the formation and evolution of black hole intermediate states. We assume that the gravitational S-matrix obeys the properties of unitarity, analyticity, crossing and causality.
