CPT AND LORENTZ SYMMETRY

June 17-21, 2013

Indiana University, Bloomington

The Sixth Meeting on CPT and Lorentz Symmetry will be held in the Physics Department, Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana, U.S.A. on June 17-21, 2013. The meeting will focus on tests of these fundamental symmetries and on related theoretical issues, including scenarios for possible violations.

Topics include:

• experimental and observational searches for CPT and Lorentz violation involving
  • accelerator and collider experiments
  • atomic, nuclear, and particle decays
  • birefringence, dispersion, and anisotropy in cosmological sources
  • clock-comparison measurements
  • CMB polarization
  • electromagnetic resonant cavities and lasers
  • tests of the equivalence principle
  • gauge and Higgs particles
  • high-energy astrophysical observations
  • laboratory and gravimetric tests of gravity
  • matter interferometry
  • neutrino oscillations and propagation, neutrino-antineutrino mixing
  • oscillations and decays of K, B, D mesons
  • particle-antiparticle comparisons
  • post-newtonian gravity in the solar system and beyond
  • second- and third-generation particles
  • sidereal and annual time variations, compass asymmetries
  • space-based missions
  • spectroscopy of hydrogen and antihydrogen
  • spin-polarized matter
  • time-of-flight measurements


• theoretical and phenomenological studies of CPT and Lorentz violation involving
  • physical effects at the level of the Standard Model, General Relativity, and beyond
  • origins and mechanisms for violations
  • classical and quantum field theory, particle physics, classical and quantum gravity, string theory
  • mathematical foundations, Finsler geometry
