KCrocker: Cosmological Coupling in the Era of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument
Recent advances in General Relativity point toward unanticipated, and dynamic, relations between ultracompact objects and the universe they inhabit. The possibility for strongly gravitating systems, like astrophysical […]

- 11:00 AM
HET Seminar - Graviton Loops and Negativity
Causality and unitary lead to sharp constraints on weakly-coupled gravitational effective field theories. They imply dispersion relations that can be used to derive sharp bounds on higher derivative couplings. We […]
