We obtain the correct expressions for the energy and normalized eigenfunctions for a spin-zero relativistic quantum oscillator model under the violation of Lorentz symmetry defined by an arbitrary constant vector field $v^{\mu}$.
Existing experiments and data sets can be leveraged to obtain additional sensitivities to Lorentz violation, beyond those originally sought, through a more precise consideration of the boost of the experiment through the background. In…
