Journal ArticleDOI
Modern Tests of Lorentz Invariance
TL;DR: This review summarizes both the theoretical frameworks for tests of Lorentz invariance and experimental advances that have made new high precision tests possible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gravity with a dynamical preferred frame
Ted Jacobson,David Mattingly +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a general covariant model of the aether was studied, in which local Lorentz invariance is broken by a dynamical unit timelike vector field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lorentz violation at high energy: Concepts, phenomena, and astrophysical constraints
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the possibility of quantum gravity induced violation of Lorentz symmetry (LV) and present a number of new results which include the explicit computation of rates of the most relevant LV processes, derivation of a new photon decay constraint, and modification of previous constraints taking proper account of the helicity dependence of the LV parameters implied by effective field theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Einstein-aether waves
Ted Jacobson,David Mattingly +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors study the linearized theory of an aether coupled to gravity and find the speeds and polarizations of all the wave modes in terms of the four constants appearing in the most general action at second order in derivatives.
Journal ArticleDOI
A strong astrophysical constraint on the violation of special relativity by quantum gravity
TL;DR: The observation of 100-MeV synchrotron radiation from the Crab nebula is used to improve the previous limit by a factor of 40 million, ruling out this type of Lorentz violation, and thereby providing an important constraint on theories of quantum gravity.
