Abstract
The energy loss due to the emission of gravitational radiation during small-angle scattering according to general relativity is computed by means of a fast approximation method. The result differs by a factor of about 2.3 from the one based on the assumption that the Einstein quadrupole formula applies to energy changes in the material source.Keywords
