Overview of Lorentz Violation in Neutrinos

Abstract

A general introduction to Lorentz and CPT violation is presented. The observable effects of the breakdown of such fundamental symmetries in neutrinos are outlined and different experimental searches of some of the key signals of Lorentz violation are discussed. A novel powerful method to study model-independent neutrino oscillations is reviewed and then used to illustrate a new global model of neutrino oscillations based on Lorentz violation consistent with atmospheric, accelerator, reactor, and solar neutrino data.
