California Amplitudes Meeting

QMAP, UC Davis, June 1-2, 2019

The meeting will be held on the 4th floor of the Department of Physics in the seminar room. The focus is on recent topic in scattering amplitudes, new mathematical structures and recent developments. It is mainly aimed at researchers located in California but others are welcome as well!
