My spin on this if it is indeed correct is that Neutrinos may tunnel through higher dimensions and in the process oscillate into different flavours .hence apparently appear to travel faster, as otherwise it does not seem plausible given they have some rest mass.. but this needs further investigation. Maybe LHC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ericgraham Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Hi NeutrinoWave,Welcome to SGL. Like you I started out in astrophysics at UCL- they called it astronomy back then. I worked in the field for quite a few years before switching to software design. I've remained an amateur astronomer, especially telescope making. In the old days that was the way to go as telescopes were much more expensive than now. You'll have fun choosing your equipment and get started observing. Lots of help here, just askEric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
