Lorentz-Violating QCD Corrections to Deep Inelastic Scattering

TL;DR

This paper investigates how CPT and Lorentz violation in QCD could affect deep inelastic scattering measurements, providing a framework to use experimental data to set bounds on such violations.

Contribution

It introduces theoretical corrections for Lorentz and CPT violation in QCD and demonstrates how to use scattering data to constrain these violations.

Findings

Derived CPT- and Lorentz-violating corrections to electron-proton scattering observables

Proposed a method to use experimental data to bound Lorentz violation coefficients in QCD

Established potential bounds on CPT and Lorentz violation parameters

Abstract

In this work, we present CPT- and Lorentz-violating corrections to observable quantities in electron-proton scattering. We also show how the theoretical prediction can be used together with data to establish bounds on a coefficient for CPT and Lorentz violation in the QCD sector.
