Neutrinos with velocities greater than c ?

Abstract

A possible explanation of the results of the OPERA experiment is presented. Assuming that the usual value of c should be interpreted as the velocity of light in dark matter, we call the "true" velocity of light in vacuum, ct. Then the OPERA neutrinos can be faster than c but slower than ct. We also discuss the relationship between ct and neutrino masses.
