Extended Lorentz code of a superluminal particle
Abstract
While the OPERA experimental scrutiny is ongoing in the community, in the present article we construct a toy model of extended Lorentz code (ELC) of the uniform motion, which will be a well established consistent and unique theoretical framework to explain the apparent violations of the standard Lorentz code (SLC), the possible manifestations of which arise in a similar way in all particle sectors. We argue that in the ELC-framework the propagation of the superluminal particle, which implies the modified dispersion relation, could be consistent with causality. Furthermore, in this framework, we give a justification of forbiddance of Vavilov-Cherenkov (VC)-radiation/or analog processes in vacuum. To be consistent with the SN1987A and OPERA data, we identify the neutrinos from SN1987A and the light as so-called 1-th type particles carrying the individual Lorentz motion code with the velocity of light c1 c in vacuum as maximum attainable velocity for all the 1-th type particles. Thereby, we treat superluminal muon neutrinos as so-called 2-nd type particles carrying the individual Lorentz motion code with the velocity c2 as maximum attainable velocity for all the 2-nd type particles. For the muon neutrinos mean energy E 2=17.5 GeV, claimed velocity (v 2-c)/c= 2.48× 10-5, and expected finite rest mass m0≈ 1eV/c2, we obtain then c2/c≈ 17.5× 109.
