Radiative Contributions to Conservative Binary Dynamics - Stefano Foffa

Explore radiative contributions to conservative binary dynamics in this 40-minute lecture by Stefano Foffa from the University of Geneva. Delve into the impact of gravitational wave detection on various fields of physics, from field theory to cosmology. Examine the precision modeling required for interpreting gravitational-wave events and searching for new physics. Learn about the self-force limit, effective theory, and multipole results. Investigate the effective action, conservative and dissipative parts, and the absence of conserved energy. Analyze memory diagrams, dissipative contributions, and radiation to infinity. Understand the optical theorem's application to gravitational waves and fields. Gain insights into the challenges and recent advances in gravitational wave modeling, as well as emerging tools and techniques from classical and quantum field theory.
