Particles recorded moving faster than light - CERN
(Reuters) - An international team of scientists has recorded neutrino
particles travelling faster than the speed of light, a spokesman for the
researchers said on Thursday -- in what could be a challenge to one of the
fundamental rules of physics.
Antonio Ereditato, who works at the CERN particle physics centre on the
Franco-Swiss border, told Reuters that measurements over three years showed
the neutrinos moving 60 nanoseconds quicker than light over a distance of
730 km between Geneva and Gran Sasso, Italy.
"We have high confidence in our results. But we need other colleagues to do
their tests and confirm them," he said.
If confirmed, the discovery would overturn a key part of Albert Einstein's
1905 theory of special relativity, which says that nothing in the universe
can travel faster than light. (Reporting by Robert Evans, editing by
