abstract
Previous researches on high-energy neutrino events from gamma-ray bursters (GRBs) suggest a neutrino speed variation $v(E)=c(1\pm E/E^{\nu}_{\mathrm{LV}})$ with ${E}^{\nu}_{\rm LV}=(6.4\pm 1.5)\times10^{17}~{ \rm GeV}$, together with an intrinsic time difference ${\Delta {t}_{\rm in}=(-2.8\pm 0.7)\times10^2~{\rm s}}$, which means that high-energy neutrinos come out about 300~s earlier than low-energy photons in the source reference system. Considering the possibility that pre-bursts of neutrinos may be accompanied by high-energy photons, in this work we search for high-energy photon events with earlier emission time from 100 to 1000~s before low-energy photons at source by analyzing Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (FGST) data. We perform the searching of photon events with energies larger than 100~MeV, and find 14 events from 48 GRBs with known redshifts. Combining these events with a $1.07~\rm{TeV}$ photon event observed by the Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov telescopes (MAGIC), we suggest a pre-burst stage with a long duration period of several minutes of high energy neutrino emissions accompanied by high energy photons at the GRB source.

Monte Carlo simulation of GRB data to test Lorentz-invariance violation
A combined model with both Lorentz-violation and energy-dependent intrinsic delays recovers simulated parameters across all mock datasets and fits multi-GeV and TeV GRB photons, yielding a subluminal LV scale of about 3 x 10^17 GeV.
