Description

In this talk, I will describe energy-energy correlators (EEC) in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory at strong coupling. We will show that the EECs are deeply connected to the AdS Virasoro-Shapiro amplitude, a link that allows us to explicitly compute its strong-coupling expansion. We will present these explicit results and also discuss properties of the EECs at strong coupling.
