Abstract
It is a surprisingly common phenomenon that two objects collide with each other and emerge only mildly altered. We motivate a dynamic-independent, analytical framework to study these mild collisions through two specific examples: (1) Head-on collision between two non-integrable solitons, and (2) Gravitational self-interaction for a collapsing shell of radiation.
