Magnetic monopoles in Lorentz-violating electrodynamics

Rodrigo Turcati, Eslley Scatena

We investigate the possibility of coexistence between Dirac-like monopoles and Lorentz-violating electrodynamics. For this purpose, we study three distinct models: Myers-Pospelov,…

Higher-order theories from the minimal length

Marco Dias, Julio M. Hoff da Silva, Eslley Scatena

We show that the introduction of a minimal length in the context of non-commutative spacetime gives rise (after some considerations) to higher-order theories. We then explicitly de…

Unitarity and non-relativistic potential energy in a higher-order Lorentz symmetry breaking electromagnetic model

Eslley Scatena, Rodrigo Turcati

The Lorentz-violating model proposed by Myers and Pospelov suffers from a higher-derivative pathology due to a dimension-5 operator. In particular, its electromagnetic sector exhib…

Some interesting features of new massive gravity

Antonio Accioly, José Helayël-Neto, Eslley Scatena +3

A proof that new massive gravity - the massive 3D gravity model proposed by Bergshoeff, Hohm and Townsend (BHT) - is the only unitary system at the tree level that can be construct…

Upper bounds on the photon mass

Antonio Accioly, José Helayël-Neto, Eslley Scatena

The effects of a nonzero photon rest mass can be incorporated into electromagnetism in a simple way using the Proca equations. In this vein, two interesting implications regarding…

Exploring Lee-Wick finite electrodynamics

Antonio Accioly, Patricio Gaete, José Helayël-Neto +2

We consider the Lee-Wick (LW) finite electrodynamics, i.e., the U(1) gauge theory where a (gauge-invariant) dimension-6 operator containing higher-derivatives is added to the free…
