Abstract

In this paper, we have presented a comprehensive study of Lorentz Invariance Violation (LIV) in the context of atmospheric neutrino experiment ICAL and long-baseline experiments T2HK and DUNE. Our study consists of the full parameter space of the LIV parameters (isotropic), i.e., six CPT violating LIV parameters (aαβa_{\alpha \beta}) and six CPT conserving LIV parameters (cαβc_{\alpha \beta}). In this study, our objective is to calculate the upper bound on all the LIV parameters with respect to the individual experiments and their combination. Our results show that DUNE gives the best sensitivity for the parameters aeea_{ee}, aeμa_{e\mu}, aeτa_{e\tau} and aμτa_{\mu\tau} in its 7 years of running whereas ICAL gives the best sensitivity on aμμa_{\mu\mu}, aμτa_{\mu\tau}, ceec_{ee}, cμμc_{\mu \mu}, cττc_{\tau\tau} and cμτc_{\mu\tau} in its 10 years of running. For aττa_{\tau\tau}, the sensitivity of DUNE and ICAL is similar. The combination of T2HK, DUNE and ICAL, gives the best sensitivity for aeμa_{e\mu} and aeea_{ee} with respect to all the existing bounds in the literature. For the CPT even diagonal parameters (isotropic) ceec_{ee} and cμμc_{\mu\mu}, our work provides the first ever bounds.
