From: Archimedes Plutonium on
Based on my previous post I am going to renounce my predictions of the
neutrino rest mass
as that of 0.24 eV based on a ratio of the muon mean life. And I
renounce my prediction that
the speed of the neutrino is 297,633 km/sec based on increments of the
fine structure constant.

I am renouncing these predictions because I know that from astronomy
reports that the
neutrino has no lag time in supernova.

And energy is more fundamental than that of mass, as we see all
particles have energy
but some have no rest mass.

And resonance exists whereever energy exists. Resonance is sort of
like a transformation
of energy, a radioactivity on the large scale to bring a analogy. And
it maybe that radioactivity
is a form of resonance on the microscale.

And the idea that Special Relativity has two bounds, an upper bound
where nothing goes
faster than the speed of light and that the speed of light is the same
to all observers in all
frames of reference, coupled with another upper bound for rest mass
matter having an
upper limit of speed before resonance makes any speed higher
impossible.

If the neutrino had a speed near that of light with a tiny rest mass,
makes no sense that
you have a desert of no speeds between that of the slow speeds and
that of the topmost
speed.

It makes more logical sense that we have an upper bound of slow moving
speeds, which is
probably the speed of the explosion of a supernova, or probably the
speed of ejecta from a
nuclear detonation. From this upper bound of slow speeds we have the
speed of light slowed
down as it encounters different mediums and finally the speed of light
itself as the upper bound of all speeds.

I think that is a correct picture of the situation on speeds. I think
this picture has to be the
correct picture in order to satisfy the tenets of Special Relativity.
That you cannot have
all ranges of speeds from 0 to the speed of light for rest mass
objects. That in order for
Special Relativity to be true, there must be a cutoff of rest mass
objects and that cutoff
is a slow speed. Then from that cutoff, there is only the speed of
light, from it being slowed
down in different mediums to the top speed itself.

If a news report come in from astronomers and verified in later
observations that the neutrinos
of a supernova lag the EM spectrum, then I would be found wrong in my
above assertions. But we already have had news reports about supernova
neutrinos and they have not lagged
behind the EM spectrum.
