The article says it is possible traveling faster-than-light but no information can be transmitted. So if this phenomenon is actually observed then you can call it a clock tick, which is: INFORMATION.

It looks like you did not even read the linked arXiv article that explains that nothing is actually traveling faster than light. In fact, no relativity is even invoked. It is nothing more than classical electrodynamics.

This phenomenon is caused by an interplay between the time scales present in the pulse and the time scales present in the medium.". This is not serious, seriously. So we fall back to that spacetime warp deadlocked logic.

Well, <plonk> you, your posting host, and the domain you rode in on.

Relativity did not have to be invoked once to explain the phenomena. If not, why are you talking about articles you do not understand? |
