Unphysical Predictions of Some Doubly Special Relativity Theories
arXiv:hep-th/0207031
Abstract
A kind of doubly special relativity theory proposed by J. Magueijo and L. Smolin [Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 190403 (2002)] is analysed. It is shown that this theory leads to serious physical difficulties in interpretation of kinematical quantities. Moreover, it is argued that statistical mechanics and thermodynamics cannot be resonably formulate within the model proposed in the mentioned paper.
