Abstract: In this paper, the basis of the Glauber theory is changed from the schrodinger equation to a relativistic equation, which is then solved using eikonal approximation to investigate the high energy behavior of the scattering amplitude and its relationship with phenomenological nuclear forces. A correction to the Glauber theory including the modification of transverse and longitudinal momentum transfer is also proposed.
