Spontaneous Lorentz symmetry breaking in nonlinear electrodynamics (1008.0017v1)
Published 30 Jul 2010 in hep-ph and hep-th
Abstract: We review some of the basic features and predictions of a gauge invariant spontaneous Lorentz symmetry breaking model arising from the nonzero vacuum expectation value of the electromagnetic tensor and leading to a nonlinear electrodynamics. The model is stable in the small Lorentz invariance violation approximation. The speed of light is independent of the frequency and one of the propagating modes is highly anisotropic. The bound (Delta c)/c < 10{-32} is obtained for such anisotropy measured in perpendicular directions.
