New Neutrino experiment at Cern repeats the impossible
According to an article by Jason Palmer, a Science and technology reporter with the BBC News (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-15791236), the latest rerun of the Cern experiment again found that Neutrinos traveled through 700km of rock faster than possible before reaching Gran Sasso’s underground laboratories.
The new work used shorter bunches of neutrinos, to comply with earlier criticisms.
Their latest experimental results have been posted to the Arxiv repository and submitted to the Journal of High Energy Physics, and have not yet been reviewed by the scientific community.
The experiments were carried out by the Opera collaboration (Oscillation Project with Emulsion (T)racking Apparatus). The initial experiments, 15,000 separate measurements spread out over three years, found that the neutrinos arrived 60 billionths of a second faster than light would have, travelling unimpeded over the same distance. The latest results echoed those results.
Next year, teams working on two other experiments at Gran Sasso–Borexino and Icarus–will begin independent cross-checks of Opera’s results. The US Minos experiment and Japan’s T2K experiment will also test the observations. It will be several months before they can report.
I have been assured by a top theoretical physicist that these results are impossible and that something is wrong with the experiment. I then consulted with myself in both the future and the past, and we agree. This just can’t be happening and that practical time travel will never occur—except when filling out time cards.
