SUMMARY:The classical double copy - Christopher White (QMUL)

CONTACT:Dr. Carl Turner
DESCRIPTION:Non-abelian gauge theories underlie particle physics\, includi
 ng collision processes at particle accelerators. Recently\, quantum scatte
 ring probabilities in gauge theories have been shown to be closely related
  to their counterparts in gravity theories\, by the so-called double copy.
  This suggests a deep relationship between two very different areas of phy
 sics\, and may lead to new insights into quantum gravity\, as well as nove
 l computational methods. This talk will review the double copy for amplitu
 des\, before discussing how it may be extended to describe exact classical
  solutions such as black holes. Finally\, I will discuss hints that the do
 uble copy may extend beyond perturbation theory.
