The OPERA collaboration has claimed that muon neutrinos with mean energy of 17.5 GeV travel 730 km from CERN to the Gran Sasso at a speed exceeding that of light by about 7.5 km/s or 25 ppm. However, we show that such superluminal neutrinos…
The recent result by the OPERA experiment, confirming a trend already present in a previous result by MINOS, raises the question of a possible strong violation of standard relativity. In particular, the particles of the standard model would…
In this paper, we consider the apparent superluminal speed of neutrinos in their travel from CERN to Gran Susso, as measured by the OPERA experiment, within the framework of the Extended Lorentz Transformation Model. The model is based on a…
In certain media, light has been observed with group velocities faster than the speed of light. The recent OPERA report of superluminal 17 GeV neutrinos may describe a similar phenomenon.
From the data release of OPERA - CNGS experiment, and publicly announced on 23 September 2011, we cast a phenomenological model based on a Majorana neutrino state carrying a fictitious imaginary mass term, already discussed by Majorana in…
In this work it is shown, that for short 3ns neutrino pulses reported by OPERA, a relativistic shape deforming effect of the neutrino distribution function due to spontaneous emission, produces an earlier arrival of 65.8ns in agreement with…
First we call the attention that velocity defined by ratio between some intervals of space and time respectively is sometimes ambiguous, in the framework of quantum theory. Velocity in general is not possible to be well defined as some…
We give an explanation on the effect of superluminal neutrinos in the OPERA experiment and show that the SN 1987A data and the recent OPERA data do agree well by the use of common known physics. The data in addition can give a good number…
An interpretation of the superluminal velocity observed by OPERA collaboration is given in terms wave packet distortion of ultrarelativistic massive neutrinos. Standard quantum-mechanical time evolution of physical states can explain the…
This report presents a brief review on the experimental measurements of the muon neutrino velocities from the OPERA, Fermilab and MINOS experiments and that of the (anti)-electron neutrino velocities from the supernova SN1987A, and…
OPERA has claimed the discovery of superluminal propagation of neutrinos. We analyze the consistency of this claim with previous tests of special relativity. We find that reconciling the OPERA measurement with information from SN1987a and…
We test several phenomenological scenarios of faster-than-light neutrinos, by fitting to the experimental data from OPERA, MINOS and Fermilab79. Our purpose is to see, from the perspective of the current data, whether or not the speed of…
The OPERA collaboration has reported the observation of superluminal muon neutrinos, whose speed $v_\nu$ exceeds that of light $c$, with $(v_\nu - c)/c \simeq 2.5 \times 10^{-5}$. In a recent work, Cohen and Glashow (CG) have refuted this…
In this report are recalled in a simple form some of the main concepts about neutrinos, starting from their discovery and classifying them in the Standard Model of the Microcosm. Then are presented the main natural sources of neutrinos,…
We constrain Horava-Lifshitz gravity using the results of OPERA and ICARUS neutrino speed experiments, which show that neutrinos are luminal particles, examining the fermion propagation in the earth's gravitational field. In particular,…
According to the measurement of muon-neutrino experiment done by the OPERA collaboration, the speed of high-energy neutrino exceeds that of light in vacuum by 25ppm. Assuming that this result is correct, a possible resolution of the dilemma…
We show that the superluminal muon neutrinos in the recent OPERA experiment can exist theoretically. The refutation of the OPERA experiment from some theoretical arguments is not universally valid, but resulting from some implicit…
Starting from the coordinate system used by Einstein to find the bending of light rays by gravitational fields we calculate the effect of the Earth gravitational energy along a hypothetical photon null path on the geoid non inertial system.…
There has been a lot of interest in measuring the velocities of massive elementary particles, particularly the neutrinos. Some neutrino experi- ments at first observed superluminal neutrinos, thus violating the velocity of light c as a…
We investigate whether theories with two conjugate metrics g_{\mu \nu} and $\tilde{g}_{\mu \nu} = \eta_{\mu \rho} \eta_{\nu \lambda} g^{\rho \lambda}$ where $\eta_{\mu \rho}$ is supposed to be a background non dynamical and flat Minkowkian…
