ITMP Seminar "Gravity as a double copy of gauge theory"

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that the next ITMP seminar will be held on Wednesday, Feb 24, at 18:00 (Moscow time). The seminar will be arranged via Zoom. 

Speaker: Ricardo Monteiro, Queen Mary University of London

Title: Gravity as a double copy of gauge theory

Abstract: Relations expressing gravity as a "double copy" of gauge theory appeared first in string theory, and have been used to compute scattering amplitudes in theories of gravity, with applications to both theory and phenomenology. I will discuss how the double copy extends to solutions to the equations of motion, including our best known black hole spacetimes, and how this story connects to the original story for scattering amplitudes.

If you want to join the seminar please register here before 17:00, February 24.
