Scattering of spinning black holes from exponentiated soft factors

A Guevara, A Ochirov, J Vines - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 - Springer
We provide evidence that the classical scattering of two spinning black holes is controlled by
the soft expansion of exchanged gravitons. We show how an exponentiation of Cachazo …
