<Andrew Strominger> studies <quantum gravity>, <string theory> and <black holes>. His work with <Alexander Zhiboedov> relates <gravitational memory> to the <Soft graviton theorem> through the behaviour of detectors and radiation near <future null infinity>.
A pulse need not leave only a passing oscillation: it can produce a lasting relative displacement between freely moving detectors. Their calculation links that displacement to the radiation <energy> flux, making a measurable classical effect part of a broader relationship with low-energy quantum emission.<Gravitational Memory, BMS Supertranslations and Soft Theorems by Andrew Strominger and Alexander Zhiboedov>[Abstract and §4, displacement and radiation-energy flux]{ref}
