Abstract

We construct the general Lorentz-violating effective field theory in curved spacetime and the corresponding nonrelativistic Hamiltonian in the Earth's gravitational field. Applying this general framework to three types of experiments, free-dropping, interferometer, and bound-state experiments, we extract first constraints on certain new coefficients in the matter-gravity sector.
