Aspects of Causality and Unitarity and Comments on Vortex-like Configurations in an Abelian Model with a Lorentz-Breaking Term

arXiv:hep-th/0204232 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.67.085021

Abstract

The gauge-invariant Chern-Simons-type Lorentz- and CPT-breaking term is here reassessed and a spin-projector method is adopted to account for the breaking (vector) parameter. Issues like causality, unitarity, spontaneous gauge-symmetry breaking and vortex formation are investigated, and consistency conditions on the external vector are identified.
