Neutrinos not faster than light ......? New finding....

The discovery that 'neutrinos travel faster than light' has recently in our Headlines.... Many questioned it's sanctity.... and were looking for possible errors.... check this page on my blog....   http://akmnscience.blogspot.com/2011/09/faster-than-light-questions-relativity.html Now an independent experiment confirms that subatomic particles have wrong energy spectrum for superluminal travel. check this  http://arxiv.org/abs/1110.3763 Title: A search for the analogue to Cherenkov radiation by high energy neutrinos at superluminal speeds in ICARUS Look at this NEWS published by Nature http://goo.gl/0fkOb doi:10.1038/news.2011.605 Finding puts brakes on faster-than-light neutrinos

Faster than LIGHT ....? Questions Relativity...?

Recently, a group of physicists have been working to measure the neutrinos generated from a particle accelerator at CERN. This group discovered neutrinos arriving faster than would have been expected and they appear to be traveling faster than the speed of light itself, but they draw no definitive conclusions.  CNGS – CERN neutrinos to Gran Sasso The CNGS project sends muon neutrinos from CERN to the Gran Sasso National Laboratory (LNGS), 732 km away in Italy.
