Lorentz - and CPT - Violating Extension of the Standard Model
نویسنده
چکیده
The formulation and some experimental implications of a general Lorentz-violating extension of the standard model are reviewed. The theory incorporates both CPT-preserving and CPT-breaking terms. It is otherwise a conventional quantum field theory, obtained under the assumption that Lorentz symmetry is spontaneously broken in an underlying model. The theory contains the usual standard-model gauge structure, and it is power-counting renormalizable. Energy and momentum are conserved. Despite the violation of Lorentz symmetry , the theory exhibits covariance under Lorentz transformations of the observer inertial frame. A general Lorentz-violating extension of quantum electrodynamics can be extracted. The standard-model extension implies potentially observable effects in a wide variety of experiments, including among others measurements on neutral-meson oscillations, comparative studies in Penning traps, spectroscopy of hydrogen and antihydro-gen, bounds on cosmological birefringence, measurements of muon properties, clock-comparison tests, and observations of the baryon asymmetry.

Hydrogen and Antihydrogen Spectroscopy for Studies of CPT and Lorentz Symmetry
A theoretical study of possible signals for CPT and Lorentz violation arising in hydrogen and antihydrogen spectroscopy is described. The analysis uses a CPTand Lorentz-violating extension of quantum electrodynamics, obtained from a general Lorentz-violating extension of the minimal standard model with both CPT-even and CPT-odd terms. Certain 1S-2S transitions and hyperfine Zeeman lines exhibit...
متن کاملCpt and Lorentz Tests in the Standard Model
A general Lorentz-violating extension of the minimal SU(3) × SU(2)× U(1) standard model is described, including both CPT-even and CPT-odd terms. Some theoretical properties and experimental implications are given. The extension can be regarded as a low-energy limit of a physically relevant Lorentz-covariant fundamental theory in which spontaneous Lorentz violation occurs.
متن کاملBounding CPT- and Lorentz-Violating Parameters in a Standard-Model Extension
A general theoretical framework that incorporates possible CPT and Lorentz violation in an extension of the standard model and in quantum electrodynamics has been developed over the last decade. The framework originates in the idea that CPT and Lorentz symmetry could be broken spontaneously in a more fundamental theory such as string theory. These symmetry violations are described in the standa...

We consider the Lorentz violating extension of the standard model introduced by D. Colladay and V. A. Kostelecky. In this framework, we obtain all Feynman rules for the electroweak part of the standard model extension (SME), for the first time. Among the new obtained interactions one finds new vertices for the Higgs boson that is interesting in the phenomenology of the Higgs particle.
