Bounds on photon scattering

Kelian Philippe Häring, João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes, Marco Meineri, Denis Karateev, Aditya Hebbar

We study 2-to-2 scattering amplitudes of massless spin one particles in d = 4 space-time dimensions, like real world photons. We define a set of non-perturbative observables (Wilson coefficients) which describe these amplitudes at low energies. We use full ...

Numerical data for scattering amplitudes of photon in d=4

João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes, Marco Meineri, Denis Karateev, Aditya Hebbar

Numerical data for scattering amplitudes of photons in d=4 obtained by solving various optimisation problems. The data is stored in .txt files. Mathematica notebook is provided for loading and plotting the data. ...

Hamiltonian truncation in Anti-de Sitter spacetime

João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes, Marco Meineri, Kamran Salehi Vaziri, Matthijs Jan Hogervorst

Quantum Field Theories (QFTs) in Anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime are often strongly coupled when the radius of AdS is large, and few methods are available to study them. In this work, we develop a Hamiltonian truncation method to compute the energy spectrum ...

A scattering amplitude in Conformal Field Theory

Marc Gillioz, João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes, Marco Meineri

We define form factors and scattering amplitudes in Conformal Field Theory as the coefficient of the singularity of the Fourier transform of time-ordered correlation functions, as p(2) -> 0. In particular, we study a form factor F(s, t, u) obtained from a ...

Colliders and conformal interfaces

Antonin Tancrède Amaury Rousset, João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes, Marco Meineri

We set up a scattering experiment of matter against an impurity which separates two generic one-dimensional critical quantum systems. We compute the flux of reflected and transmitted energy, thus defining a precise measure of the transparency of the interf ...

Spinning operators and defects in conformal field theory

Marco Meineri

We study the kinematics of correlation functions of local and extended operators in a conformal field theory. We present a new method for constructing the tensor structures associated to primary operators in an arbitrary bosonic representation of the Loren ...

Line Defects and Radiation in N=2 Conformal Theories

Marco Meineri

We study the conformal data of a generic superconformal line defect preserving half of the supercharges in a four-dimensional N = 2 conformal theory. We prove a theory independent relation between the one-point function of the stress tensor in the presence ...

Radial coordinates for defect CFTs

Marco Meineri

We study the two-point function of local operators in the presence of a defect in a generic conformal field theory. We define two pairs of cross ratios, which are convenient in the analysis of the OPE in the bulk and defect channel respectively. The new co ...

Universality at large transverse spin in defect CFT

Marco Meineri, Sourav Sarkar

We study the spectrum of local operators living on a defect in a generic conformal field theory, and their coupling to the local bulk operators. We establish the existence of universal accumulation points in the spectrum at large s, s being the charge of t ...
