Explore the connection between quantum scattering amplitudes and classical observables in General Relativity through this one-hour lecture by Paolo Di Vecchia from the Galileo Galilei Institute. Discover how modern amplitude methods can be used to extract classical gravitational physics, bridging the gap between quantum field theory techniques and Einstein's theory of gravity. Learn about the mathematical frameworks that allow physicists to derive classical results from quantum scattering processes, including applications to gravitational wave physics and black hole dynamics. Gain insights into this cutting-edge approach that has revolutionized our understanding of gravitational interactions by connecting seemingly disparate areas of theoretical physics.
