Equations of Motion and Galilei Invariance in D-Particle Dynamics

arXiv:hep-th/9808188 · doi:10.1016/S0550-3213(98)00769-X

Abstract

As a continuation of our previous work on the multi-body forces of D-particles in supergravity and Matrix theory, we investigate the problem of motion. We show that the scattering of D-particles including recoil derived in Matrix theory is precisely reproduced by supergravity with the discrete light-cone prescription up to the second order in 11 dimensional Newton constant. An intimate connection of recoil and Galilei invariance in supergravity is pointed out and elucidated.
