On electromagnetic and colour memory in even dimensions

Abstract

We explore memory effects associated to both Abelian and non-Abelian radiation getting to null infinity, in arbitrary even spacetime dimensions. Together with classical memories, linear and non-linear, amounting to permanent kicks in the velocity of the probes, we also discuss the higher-dimensional counterparts of quantum memory effects, manifesting themselves in modifications of the relative phases describing a configuration of several probes. In addition, we analyse the structure of the asymptotic symmetries of Maxwell's theory in any dimension, both even and odd, in the Lorenz gauge.
