The search for Lorentz violation is an active research field, with LV effects expected to be very small. High-energy astrophysical neutrinos provide a unique system to search for LV signatures, due to the three factors mentioned in the brief review.
The search of the violation of Lorentz symmetry, or Lorentz violation (LV), is an active research field. The effects of LV are expected to be very small, and special systems are often used to search it. High-energy astrophysical neutrinos offer a unique system to search signatures of LV, due to the three factors: high neutrino energy, long propagation distance, and the presence of quantum mechanical interference. In this brief review, we introduce tests of LV and summarize existing searches of LV, using atmospheric and astrophysical neutrinos.
