More on Neutrinos
I mentioned in a previous blogposts that there was an experiment done in which neutrinos clocked in moving faster than the speed of light. The most recent development reported in the New York Times said that there were two possible errors in the calculation. I hope more developments are forthcoming.

On Nutrinos
About two months ago, I read an article in the New York Times that said scientists believed nutrinos may have surpassed the speed of light. I asked Cerinthus, as he is currently writing his physics thesis, and he remained skeptical. However, it would be pretty cool. So today I read that a second experiment confirmed the original findings. However, the article mentions that theorists are having some trouble figuring out the reason behind this strange experimental data.
Because of this, while I was cleaning my room I listened to the In Our Time podcast on Nutrinos. Although I don't entirely understand, this time (the second time I listed to it) it made more sense.
