Quadratic curvature corrections to stringy effective actions and the absence of de Sitter vacua
Francesc Cunillera, William T. Emond, Antoine Lehébel +1
We investigate the combined effect of fluxes and higher-order curvature corrections, in the form of the Gauss-Bonnet term, on the existence of de Sitter vacua in a heterotic string…
Quantization Conditions and the Double Copy
William T. Emond, Nathan Moynihan, Liangyu Wei
We formulate Wilson loop observables as products of eikonal Wilson lines given in terms of on-shell scattering amplitudes. Using these, we derive the Dirac-Schwinger-Zwanziger quan…
Gravitational waves from melting cosmic strings
William T. Emond, Sabir Ramazanov, Rome Samanta
Appearance of cosmic strings in the early Universe is a common manifestation of new physics typically linked to some high energy scale. In this paper, we discuss a different situat…
Anyons and the Double Copy
Daniel J Burger, William T. Emond, Nathan Moynihan
We examine the double copy structure of anyons in gauge theory and gravity. Using on-shell amplitude techniques, we construct little group covariant spinor-helicity variables descr…
