Description

Considering the possibility that at high energies a minimal resolvable length is directly related to one version of doubly special relativity we study an explicit common framework to embed both concepts. This allows us to analyze their compatibility and experimental consequences. As a result of this particular approach we conclude that both concepts are compatible only for momenta sufficiently smaller than the inverse of the minimal length. In this regime we can relate dissimilar experimental observables, for example modified atomic energy levels from minimal length effects with cosmological signals considering doubly special relativity. This correlation also should be the main tool to falsify this particular approach.
