A relativistic generalization of the Glauber theory is considered for interaction of two systems with an arbitrary number of constituent nucleons or quarks. The calculations are carried out on the assumption that the constituents inside the systems are related by interactions of the oscillator type. A method is described which permits an expression not containing integrals to be obtained for the scattering amplitude. As an illustration of use of the relations obtained, the interaction of a multiquark system (fireball) with a hadron is discussed. It is shown that at high energies the cross sections for interaction of fireballs, hadrons, and nuclei have a universal form which depends only on the number of colliding valence quarks.
