Here’s a paper on the great subject of Multi-Particle States in Deformed¹ Special Relativity published by Bee of Backreaction. We read in her blog that the entire paper has been composed in her Ivory Tower.

First notice that there is as yet no agreement on the name of the physics scenario being investigated.² We may as well call it D-Special Relativity and try to brand D as an important physical letter such as M. But whatever its name turn out to be it’s been known for a long time that Doubly Special relativity is a special case of General Fortune Cookie Relativity which gives rise to Fortune Cookie Universes.

Bee’s investigation of multiparticle states in Doubly Special Relativity for observers immune to Noether current is equivalent to specially chosen observers in Fortune Cookie Universes with Mrs. Fields action. And Fortune Cookie Universes are experimentally desirable because they predict fortunes much better than Doubly Special Relativity.
