Anisotropic Lorentz invariance violation in reactor neutrino experiments

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Recent reactor neutrino oscillation experiments reported precision measurements of sin2⁡(2θ 13) and Δmee2 under the standard 3ν oscillation framework. However, inter-experiment consistency checks through the parameter goodness-of-fit test reveal proximity to tension boundary, with the Double Chooz, RENO, and Daya Bay ensemble yielding pPG=0.14 vs threshold α=0.1 . Anisotropic Lorentz invariance violation (LIV) can accommodate this tension by introducing a location-dependent angle θLIV relative to the earth’s axis. It is found that anisotropic LIV improve the fit to data up to 1.9σ confidence level significance, with the coefficient A 31C( 0)=2.43×10 −17MeV yielding the best fit, while Parameter Goodness-of-fit (PG) is significantly improved within the LIV formalism.
