Space-time quantum solves three experimental paradoxes
read the original abstract
I show that a Planck-scale deformation of the relativistic dispersion relation, which has been independently considered in the quantum-gravity literature, can explain the surprising results of three classes of experiments: (1) observations of cosmic rays above the expected GZK limit, (2) observations of multi-TeV photons from the BL Lac object Markarian 501, (3) studies of the longitudinal development of the air showers produced by ultra-high-energy hadronic particles. Experiments now in preparation, such as the ones planned for the GLAST space telescope, will provide an independent test of this solution of the three experimental paradoxes.

Fermi Acceleration Mechanisms Beyond Lorentz Symmetry
Fermi-accelerated cosmic-ray spectra acquire energy-dependent spectral indices under κ-Poincaré-deformed or Lorentz-violating kinematics, with a -2 to -3 index transition in the classical basis.
