Particle velocity in noncommutative space-time (2002)

Abstract
We investigate a particle velocity in the $\kappa$-Minkowski space-time, which is one of the realization of a noncommutative space-time. We emphasize that arrival time analyses by high-energy $\gamma$-rays or neutrinos, which have been considered as powerful tools to restrict the violation of Lorentz invariance, are not effective to detect space-time noncommutativity. In contrast with these examples, we point out a possibility that {\it low-energy massive particles} play an important role to detect it.. Comment: 16 pages, corrected some mistakes
