The electron-positron scattering process is investigated in the context of very special relativity (VSR). This theory assumes that the true symmetry of nature is not the full Lorentz group, but some of its subgroups, such as the subgroups…

Axions can naturally be very light due to the protection of an (approximate) shift symmetry. Because of their pseudoscalar nature, the long-range force mediated by the axion at tree level is spin dependent, which cannot lead to observable…

We present a search for possible spin dependent interactions of the neutron with matter through exchange of spin 1 bosons with axial vector couplings as envisioned in possible extensions of the Standard Model. This was sought using a slow…

Mandelstam-Leibbrandt(ML) regularization of Very Special Relativity (VSR) amplitudes in momentum space depends on two fixed null vectors $n_\mu,\bar{n}_\mu$ besides external momenta. ML is known to preserve gauge invariance and naive power…
