Quark-sector Lorentz violation in Z -boson production

bstract Quark-sector Lorentz violation is studied in the context of Drell-Yan dilepton production including effects from Z -boson exchange. We show the chiral nature of the weak interactions enables parity-violating and spin-dependent effects to be studied using unpolarized initial states. Constraints are placed on dimensionless and CPT-even coefficients for Lorentz violation for the first two generations of quarks using measurements from the Large Hadron Collider.
