摘要
One of the manifestations of Lorentz invariance violation (LIV) is vacuum birefringence, which leads to an energy-dependent rotation of the polarization plane of linearly polarized photons arising from an astrophysical source. Here we use the energy-resolved polarization measurements in the prompt gamma-ray emission of five bright gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) to constrain this vacuum birefringent effect. Our results show that at the 95% confidence level, the birefringent parameter eta characterizing the broken degree of Lorentz invariance can be constrained to be divided by eta divided by<O(10-15-10-16) , which represents an improvement of at least 8 orders of magnitude over existing limits from multiband optical polarization observations. Moreover, our constraints are competitive with previous best bounds from the single gamma-ray polarimetry of other GRBs. We emphasize that, thanks to the adoption of the energy-resolved polarimetric data set, our results on eta are statistically more robust. Future polarization measurements of GRBs at higher energies and larger distances would further improve LIV limits through the birefringent effect.
