We present new results for classical-particle propagation subject to Lorentz violation. Our analysis is dedicated to spin-nondegenerate operators of arbitrary mass dimension provided by the fermion sector of the Standard-Model Extension. In particular, classical Lagrangians are obtained for the operators $hat{b}_{mu}$ and $hat{H}_{mu u}$ as perturbative expansions in Lorentz violation. The functional dependence of the higher-order contributions in the background fields is found to be quite peculiar, which is probably attributed to particle spin playing an essential role for these cases. This paper closes one of the last gaps in understanding classical-particle propagation in the presence of Lorentz violation. Lagrangians of the kind presented will turn out to be valuable for describing particle propagation in curved backgrounds with diffeomorphism invariance and/or local Lorentz symmetry explicitly violated.

The current paper is dedicated to determining perturbative expansions for Lagrangians describing classical, relativistic, pointlike particles subject to Lorentz violation parameterized by the nonminimal Standard-Model Extension (SME). An iterative te chnique recently developed and applied to a Lorentz-violating scalar field theory is now adopted to treat the spin-degenerate SME fermion sector. Lagrangians are obtained at third order in Lorentz violation for the operators $hat{a}_{mu}$, $hat{c}_{mu}$, $hat{e}$, $hat{f}$, and $hat{m}$ for arbitrary mass dimension. The results demonstrate the impact of nonzero spin on classical particle propagation. They will be useful for phenomenological studies of modified gravity and could provide useful insights into explicit Lorentz violation in curved spacetimes.

In this paper, we derive the general leading-order classical Lagrangian covering all fermion operators of the nonminimal Standard-Model Extension (SME). Such a Lagrangian is considered to be the point-particle analog of the effective field theory des cription of Lorentz violation that is provided by the SME. First of all, a suitable Ansatz is made for the Lagrangian of the spin-degenerate operators $hat{a}$, $hat{c}$, $hat{e}$, and $hat{f}$ at leading order in Lorentz violation. The latter is shown to satisfy the set of five nonlinear equations that govern the map from the field theory to the classical description. After doing so, the second step is to propose results for the spin-nondegenerate operators $hat{b}$, $hat{d}$, $hat{H}$, and $hat{g}$. Although these are more involved than the Lagrangians for the spin-degenerate ones, an analytical proof of their validity is viable, nevertheless. The final step is to combine both findings to produce a generic Lagrangian for the complete set of Lorentz-violating operators that is consistent with the known minimal and nonminimal Lagrangians found in the literature so far. The outcome reveals the leading-order structure of the classical SME analog. It can be of use for both phenomenological studies of classical bodies in gravitational fields and conceptual work on explicit Lorentz violation in gravity. Furthermore, there may be a possible connection to Finsler geometry.

Lorentz and CPT invariance are among the symmetries that can be investigated with ultrahigh precision in subatomic physics. Being spacetime symmetries, Lorentz and CPT invariance can be violated by minuscule amounts in many theoretical approaches to underlying physics that involve novel spacetime concepts, such as quantiz
In the current paper, we construct a Lorentz-violating electrodynamics in (1+2) spacetime dimensions from the electromagnetic sector of the nonminimal Standard-Model Extension (SME) in (1+3) dimensions. Subsequently, we study some of the basic proper ties of this framework. We obtain the field equations, the Greens functions, and the perturbative Feynman rules. Furthermore, the modified dispersion relations are computed at leading order in Lorentz violation. We then remove the unphysical degrees of freedom from the electromagnetic Greens function that are present due to gauge invariance. The resulting object is used to construct the general solutions of the uncoupled field equations with external inhomogeneities present. This modified planar electrodynamics may be valuable to describe electromagnetic phenomena in two-dimensional condensed-matter systems. Furthermore, it supports a better understanding of the electromagnetic sector of the nonminimal SME.
We analyze a dynamics of ultracold neutrons (UCNs) caused by interactions violating Lorentz invariance within the Standard Model Extension (SME) (Colladay and Kostelecky, Phys. Rev. D55, 6760 (1997) and Kostelecky, Phys. Rev. D69, 105009 (2004)). We use the effective non-relativistic potential for interactions violating Lorentz invariance derived by Kostelecky and Lane (J. Math. Phys. 40, 6245 (1999)) and calculate contributions of these interactions to the transition frequencies of transitions between quantum gravitational states of UCNs bouncing in the gravitational field of the Earth. Using the experimental sensitivity of qBounce experiments we make some estimates of upper bounds of parameters of Lorentz invariance violation in the neutron sector of the SME which can serve as a theoretical basis for an experimental analysis. We show that an experimental analysis of transition frequencies of transitions between quantum gravitational states of unpolarized and polarized UCNs should allow to place some new constraints in comparison to the results adduced by Kostelecky and Russell in Rev. Mod. Phys. 83, 11 (2011); edition 2019, arXiv: 0801.0287v12 [hep-ph].
