Description
Tests of Lorentz invariance continue to expand and challenge our understanding of spacetime symmetries in and beyond the Standard Model and General Relativity. Using a model-independent framework based on effective field theory, generic deviations from exact Lorentz invariance, CPT invariance, and other fundamental symmetries can be studied in a wide class of physical systems covering a broad range of energies. Despite the large number of constraints extracted over the past few decades, stringent limits on quark- and electroweak-sector effects remain relatively scarce. In this talk, I discuss recent phenomenological and experimental progress on this front in the context of DIS measurements at HERA and Drell-Yan measurements at the LHC. These data enable several first constraints to be extracted on coefficients parametrizing quark- and gauge-boson sector Lorentz violation.
