"It describes certain aspects of electromagnetics that violate classical descriptions of physics," Pendlebury said. * Yakir Aharonov of Chapman University in Orange, California, Tel Aviv University, and the University of South Carolina, and Michael Berry of the University of Bristol in Britain for their discovery of the Aharonov-Bohm Effect and the related Berry Phase. This year, for physics, the prediction falls onto: Still, it's a fun game to play, and along the way, we recognize and mention those who are utterly deserving of the award. Last year, they got the one for physics completely wrong! :) My incorrect binomial factors had led to a 6% error on my earlier claim on minimum speed uncertainty, which was 1.98 km/second but now (stands corrected at) 2.21 km/second.It is that time of the year again when Thomson Reuters plays this game of predicting this year's Nobel Prize winners. If you have a 10 MeV total error somewhere, you have to convince the world, that, this is NOT affecting neutrino mass more than 1.15 eV. Method: uncertainty= 1.15 eV x 10 nanosecond x 3,00,000 km/second = 7.5 km/second, minimum you must, is 2.1 km/second corresponding to 0.312 eV, so this does not rule out superluminal neutrinos, you just need to be between (0.312 – 1.15) eV in the OPERA set-up. After I fixed mistakes in my binomial-expansion.Īt or above this error you see (7.5, >= 7.5 ) km/second, you can see that this is basic energy-time uncertainty relation. Planck’s constant = 6.6 10^(-7) eV-nanosecond Ī neutrino mass of 2 eV has to be measured to better than 1.15 eV to see any superluminal excess. It is the uncertainty relations of energy-time, speed-time or ( proper-time) -time that is in the order of h-cross, which is good enough to void or invalidate any claims of superluminal attributes neutrinos were thought to have. ”Ī stringent constraint on OPERA speed-excess: It is NOT the uncertainty-in-energy or uncertainty-in-time howsoever small or large they may be that is causing such excesses to be meaningful or meaningless. This is also most likely, and I seriously think IT IS, that MINOS-experiment does NOT see any speed excess consistent with their significance as they had kinematically and combinatorially factored-in their neutrino mass, to be in the order of ~50 MeV. In that article: citing Weinberg’s results from his text book, Weinberg’s results were for uncertainty on proper-time of neutrino in the same order we find our speed-uncertainty to be, which only means the 7.5 km/second quoted by OPERA-experiment will be washed away by as little as 4 eV uncertainty on energy. This is also in line with an article I wrote on 31/October/2011 . So OPERA must come clean on total energy uncertainties below say 4 eV to claim superluminal neutrinos, at their quoted levels of uncertainty on time. ” I reviewed and the gammas do not really turn out to be very large numbers, in fact to 20th power of beta gammas go to order of 5.002, in the right units everything fits in so well we will get a very exact number for minimum energy uncertainty in the order of eV, most likely ~4 eV. Their proper-times are also uncertain by the Compton wavelength, which spreads to the speeds, any excess OPERA is seeing is actually an uncertainty itself if uncertainties on energy are not far below 1.15 eV, uncertainties can never go below 0.312 eV which corresponds to a 2.21 km/second, so why OPERA is seeing a 1.23 km/second uncertainty on the 7.5 km/s is a matter of great concern. To be superluminal OPERA neutrinos need better precision in energy than Compton wavelength.
MICHAEL BERRY SUPERLUMINAL NEUTRINO UPDATE
Update to this article: (No Superluminal Neutrinos) neutrino police chart, CSI of OPERA. Check here for latest result: Bad news for OPERA.
So the following should be taken as a partial attempt. There is an update to this analysis which will change the results, but is much more stringent on anomaly as reported by OPERA-experiment.
