Testing Lorentz Symmetry using High Energy Astrophysics Observations
arXiv:1708.05672
Abstract
We discuss some of the tests of Lorentz symmetry made possible by astrophysical observations of ultrahigh energy cosmic rays, gamma-rays, and neutrinos. These are among the most sensitive tests of Lorentz symmetry violation because they are the highest energy phenomena known to man.
