Why Cerenkov Radiation May Not Occur, Even When It Is Allowed by Lorentz-Violating Kinematics
In a Lorentz-violating quantum field theory, the energy-momentum relations for the field quanta are typically modified. This affects the kinematics, and processes that are normally forbidden may become allowed. One reaction that clearly becomes kinematically possible when photons’ phase speeds are l...
