Abstract: | We discuss the production of particles via interaction with the earth’s gravitational field. Explicit calculations are done
for high energy scalars passing through earth’s gravitational field. We show for example, that the width for the scalar processφ→3φ can become comparable with a typical weak decay width at an energy scale of a few TeV. (Similar conclusions can be drawn about
particles that ultimately couple to some scalar field.) We speculate that similar processes may be responsible for many of
the anomalies in the 10–104 TeV experimental data. |
