This thesis research work has been mainly devoted to addressing the possibility that we might be observing some GRB neutrinos affected by in-vacuo dispersion; moreover, for GRB photons, the abundance of observations cumulatively obtained by the Fermi telescope reached a level sufficient to allow us to perform a statistical analysis over the whole collection of observed GRBs. The outline of the thesis will be the following: the first part is directed to a mathematical overview of relativistic symmetries and their representations, starting from Galilean relativity to Planck-scale-deformed special relativity, while the other parts of the thesis, after introducing the physics of GRBs and high-energy neutrinos, will concern the phenomenological results for both neutrinos and photons from GRBs, as well as the quantification of their statistical significance.

Abstract
This thesis research work has been mainly devoted to addressing the possibility that we might be observing some GRB neutrinos affected by in-vacuo dispersion; moreover, for GRB photons, the abundance of observations cumulatively obtained by the Fermi telescope reached a level sufficient to allow us to perform a statistical analysis over the whole collection of observed GRBs. The outline of the thesis will be the following: the first part is directed to a mathematical overview of relativistic symmetries and their representations, starting from Galilean relativity to Planck-scale-deformed special relativity, while the other parts of the thesis, after introducing the physics of GRBs and high-energy neutrinos, will concern the phenomenological results for both neutrinos and photons from GRBs, as well as the quantification of their statistical significance.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
