Lorentz Violation and Synchrotron Radiation
We consider the radiation emitted by an ultrarelativistic charged particle moving in a magnetic field, in the presence of an additional Lorentz-violating interaction. In contrast with prior work, we treat a form of Lorentz violation that is represented by a renormalizable operator. Neglecting the radiative reaction force, the particle’s trajectory can be determined exactly. The resulting orbit ...
متن کاملLorentz Violation and Hawking Radiation
As evidenced by this meeting, there is a growing feeling that Lorentz invariance should be questioned and tested. Tentative results from from quantum gravity and string theory hint that the ground state may not be Lorentz invariant, and new techniques are allowing for experiments with unprecedented precision and astrophysical observations at unprecedented high energies. Moreover, due to the unb...
متن کاملLimits on Lorentz violation from synchrotron and inverse Compton sources.
We derive new bounds on Lorentz violations in the electron sector from existing data on high-energy astrophysical sources. Synchrotron and inverse Compton data give precisely complementary constraints. The best bound on a specific combination of electron Lorentz-violating coefficients is at the 6 x 10(-20) level, and independent bounds are available for all the Lorentz-violating c coefficients ...
متن کاملBounding Isotropic Lorentz Violation Using Synchrotron Losses at LEP
Some deviations from special relativity—especially isotropic effects—are most efficiently constrained using particles with velocities very close to 1. While there are extremely tight bounds on some of the relevant parameters coming from astrophysical observations, many of these rely on our having an accurate understanding of the dynamics of high-energy sources. It is desirable to have reliable ...
متن کاملLorentz Violation and Neutrinos *
Neutrino oscillations provide an opportunity for sensitive tests of Lorentz invariance. This talk reviews some aspects of Lorentz violation in neutrinos and the prospect of testing Lorentz invariance in neutrinooscillation experiments. A general Lorentz-violating theory for neutrinos is discussed, and some signals of Lorentz violation are identified.
