Feedback Form

I’d really appreciate it if you could fill up the following feedback form: https://forms.gle/mQAEDXesvGT2gMaW8

Whether positive or negative, it helps a lot to know what works and what doesn’t, and especially what I should improve the next time.

Resources

I’ll put the recording of the talk here as soon as I have it.

The slides of the talk are here:

Papers / things I mentioned:

• Non-Gaussian features of primordial fluctuations in single field inflationary models, Juan Maldacena.  arXiv:astro-ph/0210603v5 
• Observation of Gravitational Waves from a Binary Black Hole Merger, B. P. Abbott et al. (LIGO Scientific Collaboration and Virgo Collaboration). https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.116.061102
• GW190521: A Binary Black Hole Merger with a Total Mass of 150  M⊙ R. Abbott et al. (LIGO Scientific Collaboration and Virgo Collaboration). https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.125.101102
• TASI Lectures on Scattering Amplitudes, Clifford Cheung. arXiv:1708.03872 [hep-ph]
• On graviton non-Gaussianities during inflation, Juan Maldacena, Guillerme Pimentel.  arXiv:1104.2846v2 [hep-th]
• The Boostless Bootstrap: Amplitudes without Lorentz boosts, Enrico Pajer, David Stefanyszyn, Jakub Supeł. arXiv:2007.00027 [hep-th]

(I’m in the process of creating a page with the thigs I’ve done or looked at during my project, which will be linked here once it is up.)

For background or content I assumed, I’d recommend watching my talk on inflation at CUPS and checking its resources page.

Acknowledgements

I am grateful to Dr Enrico Pajer for having me as a student this summer.
Thanks to Harry Goodhew, Joao Melo, Jakub Supel and David Stefanyszyn for answering my questions and useful discussions.

Thank you also to the donors of the funding for the Research in CMS Program.
