In this review, we present the latest exclusion limits obtained from astroparticles on Lorentz Invariance Violation (LIV) in the photon sector. We discuss the techniques known as energy-dependent time delay or time lag, subluminal pair production threshold shift, suppression of air shower formation, superluminal photon decay, and superluminal photon splitting. Perspectives for future results on LIV with the next generation of experiments are also addressed.

AbstractRecently two collaborations, Tibet and HAWC, presented new measurements of gamma-ray spectrum from Crab Nebula (Amenomori et al. in Phys Rev Lett 123(5):051101, 2019, arXiv:1906.05521 [astro-ph.HE]; Abeysekara et al. [HAWC Collaboration] in Astrophys. J. 881, 134, (2019), arXiv:1905.12518 [astro-ph.HE]) which continues beyond 100 TeV. We use these data to establish two-sided constraints on parameters of Lorentz Invariance violation in quantum electrodynamics. The limits on Lorentz violating mass scale for quartic dispersion relation are $$4.1\times 10^{14}\, \text{ GeV }$$4.1×1014GeV (photon splitting) and $$1.9\times 10^{13}\, \text{ GeV }$$1.9×1013GeV (photon decay) for superluminal case, and $$1.4\times 10^{12}$$1.4×1012 GeV (suppression of shower formation) for subluminal case.
