Snowmass White Paper: Gravitational Waves and Scattering Amplitudes
read the original abstract
We review recent progress and future prospects for harnessing powerful tools from theoretical high-energy physics, such as scattering amplitudes and effective field theory, to develop a precise and systematically improvable framework for calculating gravitational-wave signals from binary systems composed of black holes and/or neutron stars. This effort aims to provide state-of-the-art predictions that will enable high-precision measurements at future gravitational-wave detectors. In turn, applying the tools of quantum field theory in this new arena will uncover theoretical structures that can transform our understanding of basic phenomena and lead to new tools that will further the cycle of innovation. While still in a nascent stage, this research direction has already derived new analytic results in general relativity, and promises to advance the development of highly accurate waveform models for ever more sensitive detectors.
