Description
High-accuracy theoretical predictions for the motion of compact binary systems are essential for maximizing the discovery potential of current and future gravitational-wave observations, such as LIGO-Virgo-Kagra, Taiji, TianQin, and Einstein Telescope. Modern theoretical tools initially invented for LHC physics, such as effective field theory and multi-loop Feynman integrals, has proven exceptionally powerful for analytically solving the classical two-body problem. This talk explores recent advancements in modern perturbative field theory and its application in computing gravitational inspiral dynamics in the post-Minkowskian approximation.
