Lorentz-symmetry violation in the electroweak sector: Scattering processes in future e+ e− colliders

We study CPT-odd non-minimal Lorentz-symmetry violating couplings in the electroweak sector modifying the interactions between leptons, gauge mediators and the Higgs boson. The tree-level (differential) cross sections for three important electroweak processes are discussed: e+e−→ZH, e+e−→ZZ and γγ→W...

Sumario:We study CPT-odd non-minimal Lorentz-symmetry violating couplings in the electroweak sector modifying the interactions between leptons, gauge mediators and the Higgs boson. The tree-level (differential) cross sections for three important electroweak processes are discussed: e+e−→ZH, e+e−→ZZ and γγ→W+W−. By considering next-generation e+e− colliders reaching center-of-mass energies at the TeV scale and the estimated improved precision for the measurements of the respective cross sections, we are able to project upper bounds on the purely time-like background 4-vector as strict as ≲10−5GeV−1, in agreement with previous work on similar Lorentz-violating couplings.
