  • OPERA anomaly analysis

    OPERA anomaly analysis

    In this paper we bring out a remarkable consistency of theory of Relativity in explaining the anomalous excess of speed of neutrinos observed in the recent baseline experiment of OPERA. The OPERA experiment is performed by shooting neutrinos produced from protons at SPS, CERN to the laboratory at Gran-Sasso where OPERA has placed its neutrino…

  • 3 anomalies in 3 weeks.

    3 anomalies in 3 weeks.

    This article tries to put on record exactly why OPERA neutrino anomaly, FLYBY of Galileo anomaly and PIONEER anomalies are not at-all anomalies, based upon my research from late 2011. On 25.11.2013 I sat for couple hours and reviewed the article written from 2011 and added contents. Since I am reading after couple of years…

  • Bad news for OPERA.

    Confirm, after I fixed some error-analysis ( — binomial coefficient and error analysis) and fixed the speed-of-light-unit calculations I see that OPERA-experiment does not even need to look beyond what error they might have done. ~1 part per billion of eV (ppb) error on their neutrino-mass equivalent to ~274 ppm of 1 eV error on…

  • UPDATE TO: OPERA has lost it’s claim of superluminal neutrino.

    UPDATE TO: OPERA has lost it’s claim of superluminal neutrino.

    A stringent constraint on OPERA speed-excess: Planck’s constant = 6.6 10^(-7) eV-nanosecond; A neutrino mass of 2 eV has to be measured to better than 1.15 eV to see any superluminal excess. — After I fixed mistakes in my binomial-expansion. At or above this error you see (7.5 + >= 7.5 ) km/second, you can…

  • A tip on speed of light units

    A major advantage of Physics in terms of speed-of-light unit is we do NOT have to deal with huge numbers if we are to make a down to the pen and paper calculation. This is possible because speed of light is a constant even though a large number. So you can compute everything as if…
