La symphonie de la gravité

By Pierre Vanhove

Appears in collection : Séminaire Poincaré XXIV - Gravité quantique

The groundbreaking detection of gravitational waves on 14 September 2015 ushered in a new era in our exploration of one of nature's most profound fundamental forces: gravity. With gravitational waves now routinely detected, we have gained a novel observational framework to test gravity and investigate the properties of their sources. We gain new observational windows of the gravitational force.

In this text, we describe an innovative analytical computational framework for the inspiral phase of binary systems, achieved by embedding Einstein's theory of gravity into a quantum gravity effective action. Einstein's gravity is the leading contribution of a quantum gravity effective field theory. This framework relies on the separation of scales between long-range and short-distance physics. This setup provides a novel approach to tackling the intricate challenges of gravitational radiation. This approach provides a framework for incorporating derivations from, including quantum gravity corrections opening possibility of constraining quantum gravity corrections to classical observables.
