"Faster Than the Speed of Light" Neutrinos Revisited


"Faster Than the Speed of Light" Neutrinos Revisited


In "[meteorite-list] ebay restriction on international 
auctions of meteorites? and faster than the speed of 
light neutrinos!" at

"Also, this is pretty cool:

Faster than light particles found, claim scientists
Particle physicists detect neutrinos travelling faster 
than light, a feat forbidden by Einstein's theory of 
special relativity"

You gotta love it!!!! Cutting edge!!!!!!"

A recent article about the hypothesized "faster than 
light" neutrinos is:

Faster-than-Light Neutrino Puzzle Claimed Solved by 
Special Relativity, The Physics arXiv Blog, Oct. 14, 2011
http://www.technologyreview.com/blog/arxiv/27260/

"The relativistic motion of clocks on board GPS satellites
exactly accounts for the superluminal effect, says physicist."

The paper is:

van Elburg, R. A. J., 2011, Times of Flight between a 
Source and a Detector observed from a GPS satelite.
