Photon-Graviton Amplitudes from the Effective Action
We report on the status of an ongoing effort to calculate the complete
one-loop low-energy effective actions in Einstein-Maxwell theory with a massive
scalar or spinor loop, and to use them for obtaining the explicit form of the
corresponding M-graviton/N-photon amplitudes. We present explicit results for
the effective actions at the one-graviton four-photon level, and for the
amplitudes at the one-graviton two-photon level. As expected on general
grounds, these amplitudes relate in a simple way to the corresponding
four-photon amplitudes. We also derive the gravitational Ward identity for the
1PI one-graviton -- N photon amplitude.Comment: 9 pages, 2 figures, talk given by C. Schubert at "Supersymmetries and
