A minus sign is inserted, for good reason, into the formula for the energy–momentum tensor for tachyons. This leads to remarkable theoretical consequences and a plausible explanation for the phenomenon called dark energy in the cosmos.

Proposed Experiments re Tachyon-Neutrinos

Recent theory of tachyon neutrinos, providing an explanation for Dark Matter, leads to the prediction of an enhanced signal in detection of Cosmic Neutrino Background.

An Approach for Modelling Tachyons with Gravitation

This work expands previous efforts, within the classical theories of Special and General Relativity, to include tachyons (faster-than-light particles) along with ordinary (slower-than-light) particles…

A Consistent Theory of Tachyons with Interesting Physics for Neutrinos

Working strictly within the physics theories of Special and General Relativity, I have produced a series of studies developing a consistent mathematical description of tachyons, using both classical…

Tachyon Dynamics - for Neutrinos?

Following earlier studies that provided a consistent theory of kinematics for tachyons (faster-than-light particles) we here embark on a study of tachyon dynamics, both in classical physics and in…

Debunking the Anti-Tachyon Myths

Some people believe that the Earth is flat; and they can see this is true with their own eyes. Physicists are convinced otherwise; and they can cite abundant evidence on their side. However, when it…

Tachyons in general relativity

We consider the motion of tachyons (faster-than-light particles) in the framework of general relativity. An important feature is the large contribution of low energy tachyons to the energy-momentum…

Toward a Quantum Theory of Tachyon Fields

We construct momentum space expansions for the wave functions that solve the Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations for tachyons, recognizing that the mass shell for such fields is very different from what…
