1203.5331 (Matthew Mewes)

Optical-cavity tests of higher-order Lorentz violation    [PDF]

Matthew Mewes
The effects of Lorentz-violating operators of nonrenormalizable dimension in optical resonate cavities are studied. Optical-frequency experiments are shown to provide sensitivity to nondispersive nonbirefringent violations that is many orders of magnitude beyond current constraints from microwave cavities. Existing experiments based on Fabry-Perot and ring resonators are considered as illustrations.
