The aim of this brief review is to present a case study of how astrophysics data can be used to get bounds on Lorentz-violating parameters. For this purpose, a particularly simple Lorentz-violating modification of the Maxwell theory of…
In this work, we carry out a study of the conserved quantities and dynamical structure of the four-dimensional modified axion electrodynamics theory described by the axion-photon coupling. In the first part of the analysis, we employ the…
We review highlights from string theory, black hole physics and doubly special relativity and some "thought" experiments which were suggested to probe the shortest distance and/or the maximum momentum at the Planck scale. The models which…
By means of the Helmholtz theorem on the decomposition of vector fields, the angular momentum of the classical electromagnetic field is decomposed, in a general and manifestly gauge invariant manner, into a spin component and an orbital…
There are several theoretical indications that the quantum gravity approaches may have predictions for a minimal measurable length, and a maximal observable momentum and throughout a generalization for Heisenberg uncertainty principle. The…
Various theories of quantum gravity predict the existence of a minimum length scale, which leads to the modification of the standard uncertainty principle to the Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP). In this paper, we study two forms of…
Based on string theory, black hole physics, doubly special relativity and some "thought" experiments, minimal distance and/or maximum momentum are proposed. As alternatives to the generalized uncertainty principle (GUP), the modified…
In the framework of an arbitrary $D$-dimensional metric theory, perturbations are considered on arbitrary backgrounds that are however solutions of the theory. Conserved currents for perturbations are presented following two known…
We examine the radiative corrections to an extension of the standard model containing a Lorentz-violating axial vector parameter. At second order in this parameter, the photon self-energy is known to contain terms that violate gauge…
We give a new representation as tempered distribution for the energy-momentum tensor of a system of charged point-particles, which is free from divergent self-interactions, manifestly Lorentz-invariant and symmetric, and conserved. We…
We address a problem of proper definition of momentum density for spatially structured electromagnetic fields. We show that the expressions for the momentum and angular momentum obtained locally are not the same when one uses the canonical…
Nonlinear photon upconversion processes driven by diverse forms of structured light are receiving increasing attention. In harmonic and high-order harmonic generation (HG and HHG) with Laguerre-Gauss (LG) beams, linear scaling the driver…
Viewing gravitational energy-momentum $p_G^\mu$ as equal by observation, but different in essence from inertial energy-momentum $p_I^\mu$ naturally leads to the gauge theory of volume-preserving diffeormorphisms of an inner Minkowski space…
Several energy-momentum "tensors" of gravitational field are considered and compared in the lowest approximation. Each of them together with energy-momentum tensor of point-like particles satisfies the conservation laws when equations of…
Covariant quantization of the electromagnetic field imposes the so-called gauge-fixing modification on the Lagrangian density. As a result of that, the total angular momentum operator receives at least one gauge-fixing-originated…
There is a unique Lorentz-violating modification of the Maxwell theory of photons, which maintains gauge invariance, CPT, and renormalizability. Restricting the modified-Maxwell theory to the isotropic sector and adding a standard…
Elastic angular momentum is an emerging field, with some controversies on the correct field-theory expressions and the decomposition of longitudinal and transverse components. Motivated by the recent two papers [Phys.Rev.Lett. 128,…
In this paper we have consider the thermodynamics of a photon gas subject to the presence of a minimal measurable length following from a covariant extension of the original generalized uncertainty principle (GUP). After establishing…
A tenet of contemporary physics is that novel physics beyond the Standard Model lurks at a scale related to the Planck length. The development and validation of a unified framework that merges general relativity and quantum physics is…
We extend the discussion on the difference between angular momentum and pseudo-angular momentum in field theory. We show that the often quoted expressions in [Phys.Rev.B 103, L100409 (2021)] only apply to a non-linear system, and derive the…
