DOI 10.1016/j.physletb.2020.135735
Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

We find finite-boost transformations DSR theories in first order of the Planck length lp, by solving differential equations for the modified generators. We obtain corresponding dispersion relations for these transformations, which help us classify the DSR theories via four types. The final type of our classification has the same special relativistic dispersion relation but the transformations are not Lorentz. In DSR theories, the velocity of photons is generally different from the ordinary speed c and possess time delay, however in this new DSR light has the same special relativistic speed with no delay. A special case demonstrates that any search for quantum gravity effects in observations which gives a special relativistic dispersion relation is consistent with DSR.
