Photonic
Ad astra!
Well the neutrinos aren't moving much faster than light, which brings forth the term "The invariant velocity" aka to the layperson speed of light. But not really so, you see photons may have rest mass which means they can't reach the invariant speed, so neutrinos which do have rest mass may actually have less rest mass than photons! Which would explain why they can move faster than photons. If we calculate the difference between the velocity of photons to those of neutrinos than we get the mass difference between the two and then...we can get the invariant velocity. Fun stuff!:drool:
But looking at the Lorentz factor there can be imaginary mass. This is where the Lorentz factor can produce solutions to negative terms, in other words moving faster than the invariant speed, You see mass can not be accelerated or pushed to the invariant speed because it would take infinite energy to do so. With imaginary mass by the same token can not be decelerated to the invariant speed. But ending up faster than the invariant speed is not illegal. So what moves without acceleration? Photons do not accelerate to their velocity, they just end up moving at 300,000 km per second, nothing pushes them to get to that speed. If the neutrinos truely are moving faster than photons, then photons have mass and that would mean that rest mass can be intialized to a velocity without any need to acclerate it, at least at the quantum level...
You could just say it means instantaneous velocity with massive objects is a potential reality. No need to complicate it.
