High Energy Physics

Research Interests:

In my work I apply modern on-shell scattering amplitudes methods together with the
methodology of e0ective field theory to a variety of problems in theoretical high-energy
physics. These methods have wide applicability from elementary particle physics, to
gravitational wave astrophysics, to early-universe cosmology and beyond. Some recent
interests include: understanding absorption eIects in binary black hole and neutron
star systems, the calculation of post-Newtonian corrections to the dynamics of
hierarchical three-body systems in general relativity, and using holographic conformal
field theory methods to constrain the landscape of consistent quantum field theories in
de Sitter space.
