Special Theory of Super Relativity and a Possibility to Exceed the Speed of Light
arXiv:1109.5651
Abstract
Modification of special theory of relativity is proposed to describe the propagation of signals with superluminal velocity. Modified kinematics and Lorentz transformations of Maxwell's equations are described. A possible experiment on measuring the speed of light for verification of the theory is discussed. It is shown that replacing the maximum speed in special theory of relativity by the neutrino superluminal velocity measured by the OPERA collaboration leads to lower value of the muon mass reconstructed from the muon decay products with the modified relativistic kinematics. This value is in strong conflict with the precise muon mass measurements that excludes introducing the superluminal velocity of signals into special theory of relativity.
