Understand

The linear polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) is highly sensitive to parity-violating physics at the surface of last scattering, which might cause mixing of E and B modes, an effect known as {\it cosmic birefringence}.

This has until recently been problematic to detect due to its degeneracy with the instrument polarization miscalibration angle.
Recently, a possible detection of a non-zero cosmic-birefringence angle was reported at $\beta={0.35^\circ}\pm 0.14^\circ$, where the miscalibration angle was simultaneously determined and subtracted from the analysis.
Starting from this claim, we exploit a simple map of $\beta$ to the coupling constant of a parity-violating term in a generic effective-field theory for Lorentz and CPT violation.
