Abstract

Quantitative bounds on Lorentz symmetry violation in the neutrino sector have been obtained by analyzing existing laboratory data on neutron β decay and pion leptonic decays. In particular some parameters appearing in the energy–momentum dispersion relations for ν_e and ν_μ have been constrained in two typical cases arising in many models accounting for Lorentz violation.
