Radiatively-Induced Lorentz and CPT Violating Chern-Simons Term in QED

Abstract

We calculate the induced Lorentz- and CPT-violating Chern-Simons term arising from the Lorentz- and CPT-violating sector of quantum electrodynamics with a $b_{\mu }\bar{\psi }{\gamma }^{\mu }{\gamma }_5\psi$ term. The result to all orders in $b$ coincides with the previous linear-in-$b$ calulation by Chung and Oh [hep-th/9812132] as well as Jackiw and Kostelecký [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 82}, 3572 (1999)], since all higher order terms vanish.
