Description
Cosmic photons from astrophysical sources are ideal for investigating the Lorentz symmetry violation (LV). A series of studies on high energy gamma-ray burst (GRB) photons suggest a light speed variation with linear energy dependence at the Lorentz violation scale of $3.6*10^{17}$ GeV, with subluminal propagation of high energy photons in cosmological space. Constraints on Lorentz violation from recent observation of PeV scale photons from LHAASO collaboration are also discussed.
