Probing Lorentz Invariance Violation with Neutrino Factories


Abstract in English

In this article we show the modification in the number of neutrino events ($ u_mu+bar u_mu$) caused by Lorentz Invariant Violation (LIV), $sigma=5times 10^{-24}$ and $10^{-23}$, in neutrino oscillation for a neutrino factory at a distance of 7500 km. The momentum of the muons can vary from 10-50 GeV and we consider $2times 10^{20}$ decays per year. The modifications in the number of events caused by this $sigma$ LIV parameter could be a strong signal of new physics in a future neutrino factory.
