Description

The need to improve the analytical knowledge of the gravitational waveforms emitted by binary systems has recently sparked a fervent activity in the application of  (classical and/or quantum) post-Minkowskian perturbation methods (expansion in G) to the  two-body relativistic gravitational dynamics and radiation. We shall discuss how the use of a classical Effective-Field-Theory worldline approach to gravitational scattering, combined with modern Quantum-Field-Theory integration techniques, allows one to compute both the gravitational-wave amplitude and the associated radiated four-momentum.
