From Twistors to Gravitational Scattering (2/2)

By Lionel Mason

This lecture will obtain a compact twistor formula for the full tree-level gravitational S-matrix beyond the self-dual sector. It uses an extension of the complex geometry of twistor space of the previous lecture. In the final formula, all integrations are saturated against delta functions yielding a sum of residues. These depend on the n momenta and polarization vectors of associated gravity linear waves.
