Abstract
A study is made of scalar bremsstrahlung associated with the gravitational and electromagnetic scattering of point particles. It is shown that the interaction between the gravitational field and the scalar field leads to a significant change in the spectral and angular distribution of the radiated energy when there is gravitational interaction of the radiating particles as compared with the case of electromagnetic interaction. The information that the low-frequency approximation can give for this problem is also discussed.
