MERGED: Pillar of Physics challenged

GENEVA (AP) — A startling find at one of the world's foremost laboratories that a subatomic particle seemed to move faster than the speed of light has scientists around the world rethinking Albert Einstein and one of the foundations of physics.

at least this is the right way to handle a theory. lay it out for scrutiny.

this would be fun to look out for.

same here, magsunod pod ko ani..

hope to hear from our resident physicist sa ilang views ani. calling sir fritzd

[rikki]

actually, an expert said that this experiment has happened before sad daw. however, due to a large margin of error sa ilang method they were skeptical and altogether discarded their results.

as for the experiment at CERN, the scientists were also skeptical and asked help from other institution to verify their results. thus another experiment with more precise methodology will be done. at least that's what they said.

as for my view, well, it is called a particle accelerator for a purpose. so maybe if you spend a long enough time in there, then maybe it is possible. who knows!?

I'm highly skeptical of this. The neutrino traveled faster than the speed of light for ONLY 60 nanoseconds. The readings could be a result of human error. Who knows?
