Testing the Special Relativity Theory with Neutrino interactions

Abstract

A recent measurement of neutrino velocity by the OPERA experiment and prediction of energy loss of superluminal neutrino via the pair creation process ννe+e\nu\to \nu e^+e^- stimulated a search of isolated e+ee^+e^- pairs in detectors with good tracking capability traversed by a large flux of high energy neutrino like NOMAD. NOMAD has already searched for similar topologies. These results can be reinterpreted to provide stringent limits on special relativity violating parameters separately for each ν\nu species.
