Neutrinos with velocities greater than c ?

Abstract

A possible explanation of the results of the OPERA experiment is presented. Assuming that the usual value of c should be interpreted as the velocity of light in dark matter, we call the "true" velocity of light in vacuum, ctc_t. Then the OPERA neutrinos can be faster than c but slower than ctc_t. We also discuss the relationship between ctc_t and neutrino masses.
