Testing Lorentz invariance of electrons with LHAASO observations of PeV gamma-rays from the Crab Nebula
The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) recently reported the detection of gamma-ray emissions with energies up to 1.1PeV from the Crab Nebula. Using the absence of vacuum Cherenkov effect by inverse-Compton electrons, we improve previous bounds to linear-order Lorentz invariance vio...
