Preferred-frame Tests

Preferred-Frame Tests is a class of experimental methodologies within relativistic physics that belong to the broader category of tests of gravitational theories, specifically designed to detect violations of local Lorentz invariance by probing for observable effects that would indicate the existence of a privileged inertial reference frame.
