Testing kappa-Poincare' with neutral kaons
Abstract
In recent work on experimental tests of quantum-gravity-motivated phenomenological models, a significant role has been played by the so-called ``'' deformations of Poincar\'e symmetries. Sensitivity to values of the relevant deformation length as small as has been achieved in recent analyses comparing the structure of -Poincar\'e symmetries with data on the gamma rays we detect from distant astrophysical sources. We investigate violations of CPT symmetry which may be associated with -Poincar\'e in the physics of the neutral-kaon system. A simple estimate indicates that experiments on the neutral kaons may actually be more -sensitive than corresponding astrophysical experiments, and may already allow to probe values of of order the Planck length.
