Group: Physics and Astronomy High Energy Physics Seminars

Category: Academic

Description:

I will introduce a Lagrangian formalism to calculate in quantum gravity in the Regge limit in a systematic expansion in the classical and quantum couplings. This formalism allows for significant computation simplification and the resummations logs which include classical contributions to the PM scattering angles. I will also demonstrate how the formalism can be used to calcualte the graviton Regge trajectory.
