On-Shell Physics of Black Holes
Ben Maybee
On-shell scattering amplitudes have proven to be useful tools for tackling the two-body problem in general relativity. This thesis outlines how to compute relevant classical observ…
A worldsheet for Kerr
Alfredo Guevara, Ben Maybee, Alexander Ochirov +2
We show that the Newman-Janis shift property of the exact Kerr solution can be interpreted in terms of a worldsheet effective action. This holds both in gravity, and for the single…
Classical Yang-Mills observables from amplitudes
Leonardo de la Cruz, Ben Maybee, Donal O'Connell +1
The double copy suggests that the basis of the dynamics of general relativity is Yang-Mills theory. Motivated by the importance of the relativistic two-body problem, we study the c…
Observables and amplitudes for spinning particles and black holes
Ben Maybee, Donal O'Connell, Justin Vines
We develop a general formalism for computing classical observables for relativistic scattering of spinning particles, directly from on-shell amplitudes. We then apply this formalis…
Amplitudes, Observables, and Classical Scattering
David A. Kosower, Ben Maybee, Donal O'Connell
We present a formalism for computing classically measurable quantities directly from on-shell quantum scattering amplitudes. We discuss the ingredients needed for obtaining the cla…
