Classical Light Bending in the SME Framework
ORAL
Abstract
Classical light bending is investigated in weak gravitational fields based on the framework of the Lorentz-violating Standard- Model Extension (SME). We derive a modified deflection angle with anisotropic features that are characteristic of deviations from Lorentz Symmetry. In this talk, we also discuss methods to measure this deflection angle with current light-bending tests.
