Asymptotic charges as detectors and the memory effect in massive QED and perturbative quantum gravity

Brett Oertel, Ian Moult, Sabrina Pasterski

It has been shown that there are an infinite set of asymptotic symmetries in quantum gravity and QED, and this has been extended to dressed states in some cases. Here we rederive t…
