Lorentz and CPT Violating Chern-Simons Term in the Derivative Expansion of QEDDOI: 10.1103/PhysRevD.60.067702 Abstract: We calculate by the method of dimensional regularization and derivative expansion the one-loop effective action for a Dirac fermion with a Lorentz-violating and CPT-odd kinetic term in the background of a gauge field. We show that this term induces a Chern-Simons modification to Maxwell theory. Some related issues are also discussed.
