Description
In this paper we review the problem of time delay of photons propagating in a spacetime with a metric that explicitly depends on the energy of the particles (gravity-rainbow approach). We show that corrections due to this approach--which is closely related to the double special relativity proposal--produce for small redshifts (z<<1) smaller time delays than in the generic Lorentz invariance violating case
