Lorentz-symmetry violation in scenarios of non-linear electromagnetic models: a preliminary inspection

In this contribution, our efforts consist in presenting and discussing the status of a paper in progress we are working on to investigate how non-linear electromagnetic effects couple to the parameters that signal Lorentz-symmetry violation (LSV). Here, we realize LSV by means of a specific model, namely Carroll-Field-Jackiw's. We set the formulation by considering a general non-linear photonic Lagrangian (written in terms of the Lorentz-invariant bilinears in the field-strength) that may be coupled to different operators that carry the message of LSV. In possess of the polynomial equation expressing the dispersion relation and the refractive index, one can find the results that express how the (meta)material constitutive properties of the vacuum are affected by the mixing of the parameters that measure LSV with the parameters of the specific non-linear electrodynamic model under consideration. We expect that our efforts might be of interest in connection with the experiments carried out with the existing super-intense LASERs based on chirped pulse amplification.
