Prospective constraints on Lorentz violation from ultrahigh-energy photon detection

Sergey Sibiryakov

We point out that violation of Lorentz invariance affects the interaction of high-energy photons with the Earth's atmosphere and magnetic field. In a certain parameter region this interaction becomes suppressed and the photons escape observation, passing t ...
