Gravitational Waves from Scattering Amplitudes

Since the first detection of gravitational waves, the need for precise prediction of waveform templates has pushed to develop modern approaches to compute gravitational observables. One of the most promising programs is based on treating gravity as an effective field theory and extracting classical observables from quantum scattering amplitudes. The systematic approach lies on the eikonal...
The extraordinary detection of gravitational waves (GWs) emitted by binary coalescing systems gave us a new instrument to probe our Universe and to test General Relativity (GR). The increasing precision of current and future GWs interferometers requires very accurate predictions of GWs observables. Scattering amplitudes techniques, which for decades have been developed for collider...
