185 citations recorded by the source corpus.

This is intended to be a brief introduction and overview of Hořava-Lifshitz gravity. The motivation and all of the various versions of the theory (to date) are presented. The dynamics of the theory are discussed in some detail, with a focus on low energy viability and consistency, as these have been the issues that attracted most of the attention in the literature so far. Other properties of the theory and developments within its framework are also covered, such as: its relation to Einstein-aether theory, cosmology, and future perspectives.

Tests of Lorentz invariance: a 2013 update (2013, background): “The emission from radio to low-energy γ -rays (E 1 GeV) is thought to be synchrotron radiation from relativistic electrons, whereas IC scattering by these electrons is the favoured explanation for the higher energy γ -rays.”
