Abstract
We derive the relativistic factor for splitting of the -factors of a fermion and its antifermion partner, which is important for placing constraints on dimension-five, -odd and Lorentz-invariance-violating interactions from experiments performed in a cyclotron. From existing data, we extract limits () on the coupling strengths of the temporal component, , of a background field (including the field amplitude), which is responsible for such -factor splitting, with an electron, proton, and muon: , , and , respectively, in the laboratory frame ( is the Bohr magneton). From existing data, we also extract limits on the coupling strengths of the spatial components, , of related dimension-five interactions of a background field with an electron, proton, neutron, and muon: , , , and , respectively, in the laboratory frame.
