The Interaction of Quantum Gravity with Matter
arXiv:1002.2079 · doi:10.1088/0264-9381/27/22/225004
Abstract
The interaction of (linearized) gravitation with matter is studied in the causal approach up to the second order of perturbation theory. We consider the generic case and prove that gravitation is universal in the sense that the existence of the interaction with gravitation does not put new constraints on the Lagrangian for lower spin fields. We use the formalism of quantum off-shell fields which makes our computation more straightforward and simpler.
