abstract
We identify an eikonal regime in celestial CFT$_2$ in which massless 2-2 scattering is dominated by t-channel exchange. We derive a formula for the celestial amplitude that resums exchanges of arbitrary integer spin to all orders in the coupling. The resulting eikonal phase takes the same form as in flat space with the powers of center-of-mass energy replaced by weight-shifting operators on the celestial sphere. We independently compute the celestial two-point function for a scalar propagating in a shockwave background and show that to leading order in the gravitational coupling and for a suitable choice of the source, the result agrees with the prediction from the celestial eikonal formula for graviton exchange. We demonstrate that this two-point function can be directly obtained from the corresponding formula in AdS$_4$ in a flat space limit. We finally establish a general relation between scalar celestial amplitudes in celestial CFT$_{d-1}$ and the flat space limit of scalar AdS$_{d+1}$ Witten diagrams.

Celestial Regge theory
Celestial pair correlators in the Regge limit are shown to encode bulk Regge-pole residues, giving a dictionary between celestial CFT OPE data and bulk partial amplitudes (eq. 5.6).

Li\'enard--Wiechert fields in AdS and flat-space antipodal matching from geodesic-centered Coulombic data
The Coulombic Liénard–Wiechert field in AdS and flat space is obtained by recentering the static Coulomb seed on the source geodesic, and antipodal matching emerges as the flat-space limit of an exact bulk antipodal c...

QCD-Gravity double copy in Regge asymptotics: from $2\rightarrow n$ amplitudes to radiation in shockwave collisions
A lecture-note synthesis showing that the same Lipatov vertices and reggeized propagators govern multi-particle production in QCD and gravity, with double-copy, Weinberg soft, and shockwave limits all connected in one...
