REVIEW OF THE PHENOMENOLOGY OF NONCOMMUTATIVE GEOMETRY

Abstract

We present a pedagogical review of particle physics models that are based on the noncommutativity of space–time, [Formula: see text], with specific attention to the phenomenology these models predict in particle experiments either in existence or under development. We summarize results obtained for high energy scattering such as would occur, for example, in a future e+e-linear collider with [Formula: see text], as well as low energy experiments such as those pertaining to elementary electric dipole moments and other CP violating observables, and finally comment on the status of phenomenological work in cosmology and extra dimensions.
