Using the recently established formalism of a worldline quantum field theory (WQFT) description of the classical scattering of two spinless black holes, we compute the far-field time-domain waveform of the gravitational waves produced in the encounter at leading order in the post-Minkowskian (weak field, but generic velocity) expansion. We reproduce previous results of Kovacs and Thorne in a highly economic way. Then using the waveform we extract the leading-order total radiated angular momentum and energy (including differential results). Our work may enable crucial improvements of gravitational-wave predictions in the regime of large relative velocities.

Gravitational bremsstrahlung waveform at the eighth post-Minkowskian order in the extreme-mass-ratio limit
New high-order perturbative results for extreme-mass-ratio gravitational scattering waveforms, radiated angular momentum, and radiation-reaction deflection, claimed at eighth but explicitly computed to seventh post-Mi...

Memory effect from the scattering of Taub-NUT black holes
Soft theorems yield a gauge-invariant nutty soft factor and the associated memory tensor for Kerr-Taub-NUT scattering, with magnetic components and directional divergences absent in electromagnetism.

Conservative Black Hole Scattering at Fifth Post-Minkowskian and Second Self-Force Order
The conservative black-hole scattering angle at fifth post-Minkowskian and second self-force order is computed in terms of K3 periods, but contains a coefficient fixed only by an ad hoc 'γ-3' prescription.

Entire Four-Graviton EFT from the Duality Between Color and Kinematics
Every parity-even four-graviton amplitude in any spacetime dimension can be constructed from gauge-theory building blocks via double or triple color-kinematics copies, with the D>6 Lovelock R^3 term as the unique trip...

Generalized Unitarity Method for Worldline Field Theory
Worldline gravitational observables can be bootstrapped from locality, unitarity, gauge invariance, and a soft theorem once worldline energies are complexified, reproducing the known O(G^5/2) waveform and O(G^3) on-sh...

Nonlinear Gravitational Memory in the Post-Minkowskian Expansion
Exact-in-velocity formulas for the O(G^3) nonlinear gravitational memory multipoles from two-body scattering, derived with scattering amplitudes and reverse unitarity, and matched to post-Newtonian results.

"Waveforms" at the Horizon
A probe scattering off a Schwarzschild black hole transfers a definite leading-order post-Minkowskian angular momentum to the horizon, given by new closed formulas (3.24b), (3.29), (3.36).

In-in worldline formalism in pair creating fields
In-in observables in pair-creating QED backgrounds are re-expressed exactly as in-out matrix elements with a universal non-local insertion, yielding a first-quantized formula for the probability of producing N pairs.

Manifest symplecticity in classical scattering
The on-shell action and the exponential scattering generator differ as functions, but the on-shell action of the true Hamiltonian equals the on-shell action of the generator treated as a unit-time effective Hamiltonian.
