Allowing for a difference in neutrino and photon propagation times of similar to 10 days, we find that M-1 greater than or similar to 3 x 10(16) GeV. This improves on previous limits on linear Lorentz violation in neutrino propagation by many orders of magnitude, and the same is true for quadratic Lorentz violation.", optnote="WOS:000457165400047", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=3900), last updated on Wed, 13 Feb 2019 09:47:23 +0000", issn="0370-2693", doi="10.1016/j.physletb.2018.11.062", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/1807.05155", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2018.11.062", language="English" }
