Atomic and optical tests of Lorentz symmetry
This article‡ reports on the Fourth Meeting on Lorentz and CPT Symmetry, CPT ’07, held in August 2007 in Bloomington, Indiana, USA. The focus is on recent tests of Lorentz symmetry using atomic and optical physics. Results presented at the meeting include improved bounds on Lorentz violation in the photon sector, and the first bounds on several coefficients in the gravity sector.
متن کاملAstrophysical Tests of Lorentz and CPT Violation with Photons
A general framework for tests of Lorentz invariance with electromagnetic waves is presented, allowing for operators of arbitrary mass dimension. Signatures of Lorentz violations include vacuum birefringence, vacuum dispersion, and anisotropies. Sensitive searches for violations using sources such as active galaxies, gamma-ray bursts, and the cosmic microwave background are discussed. Direction-...
متن کاملTheory and Tests of Cpt and Lorentz Violation
Nature appears to be covariant both under the discrete transformation CPT, formed from the product of charge conjugation C, parity inversion P, and time reversal T, and under the continuous Lorentz transformations including rotations and boosts. The CPT theorem links these symmetries, stating that under mild technical assumptions CPT is an exact symmetry of local Lorentzcovariant field theories...
متن کاملNuclear Matrix Elements for Tests of Local Lorentz Invariance Violation.
The nuclear matrix elements for the spin operator and the momentum quadrupole operator are important for the interpretation of precision atomic physics experiments that search for violations of local Lorentz and CPT symmetry and for new spin-dependent forces. We use the configuration-interaction nuclear shell model and self-consistent mean-field theory to calculate the momentum matrix elements ...
متن کاملHigh Energy Astrophysics Tests of Lorentz Invariance Violation
Observations of the multi-TeV spectra of the Mkn 501 and other nearby BL Lac objects exhibit the high energy cutoffs predicted to be the result of intergalactic annihilation interactions, primarily with IR photons having a flux level as determined by various astronomical observations. After correcting for such intergalactic absorption, these spectra can be explained within the framework of sync...
