High Energy Physics Seminar
Online and In-Person Event
Semiclassical Amplitudes and Black Holes
Donal O'Connell,
Edinburgh University,
In recent years, ideas from quantum field theory, including effective field theory and the on-shell methods of scattering amplitude, have been successfully applied to classical gravitational-wave physics. In this talk, I will show that these ideas can easily be extended to the semiclassical case of Hawking radiation. I will further discuss what we learn about the relevant amplitudes along the way.
The talk is in 469 Lauritsen.
