Unexpected Symmetries of Kerr Black Hole Scattering

Dogan Akpinar, Graham R. Brown, Riccardo Gonzo +1

Motivated by the recent introduction of the Dirac bracket framework to compute spinning observables for the scattering of Kerr black holes, we initiate the study of conserved quant…

Feynman Integral Reduction using Syzygy-Constrained Symbolic Reduction Rules

Sid Smith, Mao Zeng

We present a new algorithm for integration-by-parts (IBP) reduction of Feynman integrals with high powers of numerators or propagators, a demanding computational step in evaluating…

Scattering Amplitudes and Conservative Binary Dynamics at without Self-Force Truncation

Zvi Bern, Enrico Herrmann, Radu Roiban +4

We compute the complete potential-graviton contributions to the conservative radial action and scattering angle for two non-spinning bodies in general relativity, accurate through…

Second-order self-force potential-region binary dynamics at in supergravity

Zvi Bern, Enrico Herrmann, Radu Roiban +4

We compute the potential-graviton contributions to the conservative scattering angle of two non-spinning bodies in maximal supergravity at fifth order in Newton's constant, includi…

Amplitudes, Supersymmetric Black Hole Scattering at , and Loop Integration

Zvi Bern, Enrico Herrmann, Radu Roiban +4

We compute the potential-graviton contribution to the scattering amplitude, the radial action, and the scattering angle of two extremal black holes in N = 8 supergravity at the fif…
