Quantum gravity phenomenology via Lorentz violations

Published 2007 in Unknown venue

ABSTRACT

The search for a quantum theory of gravity has been one of the m ain aims of theoretical physics for many years by now. However the efforts in this direction h ave been often hampered by the lack of experimental/observational tests able to select am ong, or at least constrain, the numerous quantum gravity models proposed so far. This situation has c nged in the last decade thanks to the realization that some QG inspired violations of Lorentz symmetry could be constrained using current experiments and observations. This study it is not o ly allowing us to test at higher and higher energies a fundamental symmetry of spacetime but it i s also providing us with hints and perspectives about the fundamental nature of gravity.
