Electrodynamics modified by some dimension-five Lorentz-violating interactions: radiative corrections

Year: 2014
Type: article
Abstract: We study radiative corrections to massless quantum electrodynamics modified by two dimension-five LV interactions $$\bar{\Psi } \gamma ^{\mu } b'^{\nu } F_{\mu \nu }\Psi $$ and $$\bar{\Psi }\gamma ^{\mu }b^{\nu } \tilde{F}_{\mu \nu } \Psi $$ in the framework of effective field theories. All divergent one-particle-irreducible Feynman diagrams are calculated at one-loop order and several related issues are discussed. It is found that massless quantum electrodynamics modified by the interaction $$\bar{\Psi } \gamma ^{\mu } b'^{\nu } F_{\mu \nu }\Psi $$ alone is one-loop renormalizable and the result can be understood on the grounds of symmetry. In this context the one-loop Lorentz-violating beta function is derived and the corresponding running coefficients are obtained.
