Was Einstein Wrong? A Faster-Than-Light Neutrino Could Be Saying Yes

By Michael D. Lemonick Friday, Sept. 23, 2011

Physicists have a stock phrase they trot out whenever someone claims to have made an astounding new discovery about the universe. "Important," they say, "if true."
It's a tactful way of saying "Don't bet on it," and they've been saying it a lot over the past day or so. The reason: a team of European scientists has reportedly clocked a flock of subatomic particles called neutrinos moving at just a shade over the speed of light. According to Albert Einstein's special theory of relativity, that can't be, since light, which cruises along at about 186,000 miles per second (299,000 km/sec.), is the only thing that can go that fast.
If the Europeans are right, Einstein was not just wrong but almost clueless. The implications could be huge. Particles that move faster than light are essentially moving backwards in time, which could make the phrase cause and effect obsolete.
"Think of it as being shot before the trigger is pulled," wrote University of Rochester astrophysicist Adam Frank on his NPR blog. Or, as Czech physicist Lubos Motl put it on his blog, "You could kill your grandfather before he had his first sex with your grandmother, thus rendering your own existence needed for the homicide inconsistent with the result of the homicide."
The evidence for this complete upending of modern physics and cosmic decorum comes from an experiment involving two top-notch physics installations. The first is CERN, the European Center for Particle Physics, near Geneva, where a particle accelerator created the swarm of neutrinos in the first place. These bits of matter are bizarre no matter how you look at them: they're so elusive that one of them could pass through a chunk of lead a trillion miles thick without a bump.
It's no surprise, then, that the swarm created at CERN could fly out of the accelerator, zip right through the Alps and appear in the Gran Sasso Observatory, located in a tunnel deep beneath Italy's Apennine Mountains. Most of the neutrinos kept on going, but just a few, by pure chance, were intercepted by one of the observatory's neutrino detectors. And when the two labs synchronized their watches, it appeared that the particles had made the 450-mi. (724 km) journey 0.0025% faster than a beam of light would have (if light could travel through mountains, that is).
That splinter of a second isn't much, but it's enough to overturn a century of firmly established physics, rewrite the textbooks and throw the faculties at major universities around the world into a collective tizzy. In short, it's really important.
If true.
No one is tearing up the Einsteinian rule book just yet. As physicists well know, astonishing results like this often turn out to be wrong, especially when they haven't been double-checked. Sometimes that means the group announcing the big news has done shoddy work, like the Utah chemists who announced to great fanfare back in 1989 that they'd achieved controlled nuclear fusion on a tabletop — the cold-fusion kerfuffle — trumping the physicists who'd been struggling for years to do the same thing with billion-dollar machines. Sometimes it just means the researchers have overinterpreted what they're seeing, as when NASA scientists said they'd found evidence of life in a rock from Mars.
And sometimes, the researchers have gone about things the right way, carefully checking their equipment and their calculations to make sure they aren't being fooled by some mundane, potentially embarrassing glitch. The Grand Sasso scientists have done just that kind of due diligence here, and you know what? They still can't find any evidence that they've missed anything.
But that doesn't mean they haven't. It's always possible that their instruments are misbehaving in too subtle a way for anyone to detect at this point. Given the stakes if the equipment is right — if neutrinos really can move faster than light — nobody's buying the shocking result until another set of researchers, using another set of instruments, gets the same answer. Indeed, that's exactly what Antonio Ereditato, of the University of Bern, leader of the Gran Sasso end of the experiment, is hoping for. He told the BBC: "My dream would be that another, independent experiment finds the same thing. Then I would be relieved." This very willingness to be double-checked — and proved wrong — gives the scientists greater credibility, even if the jury is still out on their findings.
A second opinion may be coming soon. A group at the Fermilab accelerator complex, near Chicago, says it's preparing to do just the follow-up round of studies Ereditato welcomes. As it happens, Fermilab physicists made their own faster-than-light neutrinos claim back in 2007. It too would have been important if true, but on closer analysis, the evidence went away. The Fermilab scientists immediately accepted the verdict that time, just as the Europeans undoubtedly will if this new "discovery" goes up in smoke, as physicists everywhere are betting it will.
Or maybe it won't: the history of science may be littered with claims that were ultimately proved false, but some outrageous ideas turn out to be true in the end. Take dark matter, the mysterious, invisible stuff that outweighs the visible stars and galaxies by a factor of 10 to 1. When it was first proposed in the 1930s, nobody believed it. When it reappeared in the 1960s, everyone laughed. Now it's firmly accepted as a fundamental part of the universe.
That kind of thing just might happen again. "Based on past experience, these results are probably wrong," writes Adam Frank at NPR.org, "but it sure would be a wild ride if they prove correct."

Ditemukan Partikel Neutrino yang Melampaui Kecepatan Cahaya

Oleh Widya Buana | TRIBUNnews.com –  Sab, 24 Sep 2011

TRIBUNNEWS.COM - Sejumlah ilmuwan di Swiss mengungkapkan bahwa dari hasil penelitian mereka selama bertahun-tahun, mereka menemukan sebuah partikel kecil yang kecepatannya melebihi kecepatan cahaya dan melawan hukum alam. Demikian dilansir CNN, Jumat (23/9/2011).
Para ahli fisika ini mengatakan jika partikel yang berbentuk neutrinos ini dikirim di bawah tanah dari laboratorium di Swiss dan Italia berjarak 730 kilometer dan sampai kurang dari satu detik jika di banding dengan kecepatan cahaya yang dipancarkan dalam jarak yang sama.
Laporan ini dipublikasikan oleh lembaga peneliti yang bekerja di sebuah proyek bernama eksperimen Opera yang berbasis di European Organization for Nuclear Research yang dikenal dengan nama CERN.
CERN adalah tempat dari Large Hadron Collider. "Saya kaget dan sungguh di luar dugaan," demikian ujar Antonio Ereditato, juru bicara proyek Opera di Universitas Bern di Swiss.
Meski demikian, para peneliti yakin jika apa yang mereka lakukan sudah benar. Penemuan ini tentu saja menantang teori Albert Enstein tentang relativitas dan teori klasik yang mengatakan tak ada satupun yang bisa mengalahkan kecepatan cahaya.
"Ini adalah penemuan yang luar biasa jika benar," kata Professor Neville Harnew, kepala peneliti partikel fisik di Oxford University. Ia menambahkan, jika peneliti konsisten menunjukkan kebenaran itu maka ini adalah bentuk revolusi fisika seperti yang suda dikenal selama ini.

Dua Guru SMK Ciptakan Traktor Ajaib, Bisa Menanam, Gemburkan Tanah dan Membajak Sekaligus

Republika –  Jum, 23 Sep 2011

REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, SUMBAWA BARAT-- Dua guru Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan Negeri 1 Seteluk Kabupaten Sumbawa Barat, Nusa Tenggara Barat, Syamsuri dan Abdul Malik berhasil menciptakan traktor tangan multiguna. Traktor itu bisa untuk membajak, menggemburkan tanah, sekaligus menanam dalam waktu bersamaan.
Kepala Sub Bidang Pengembangan dan Penerapatan Teknologi Tepat Guna (TTG), Badan Pemberdayaan Masyarakat (BPM) Kabupaten Sumbawa Barat, Indra Jaya, di Taliwang, Jumat mengatakan, kegunaan peralatan pertanian itu lebih banyak dibandingkan traktor tangan yang hanya bisa digunakan untuk membajak lahan pertanian.
Pemkab Sumbawa Barat menilai teknologi alternatif yang ditemukan dua orang guru Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan Negeri (SMKN) 1 Seteluk itu merupakan teknologi tepat guna (TTG) yang bisa dikembangkan, selain karena manfaatnya banyak harganya juga relatif murah.
"Karena itu karya dua orang guru bersama para siswa SMKN 1 Seteluk itu akan dipamerkan pada lomba Penerpan TTG tingkat nasional di Kendari, Sulawesi Tenggara, 12 hingga 14 Oktober 2011," katanya.
Alat pertanian multi guna itu oleh penciptanya diberi nama "Ulik" yang dalam bahasa daerah Sumbawa Barat berarti cepat. Namun untuk sementara alat tersebut baru digunakan pada lahan tanaman jagung dan jenis tanaman palawija lainnya.
Alat pertanian tersebut menggunakan mesin berkekuatan 25 PK dilengkapi empat roda. Dari sisi kegunaan berbeda dengan traktor tangan yang hanya bisa digunakan untuk membajak dan menggemburkan tanah. sementara "Ulik" berfungsi ganda dan bisa dioperasikan secara bersamaan.
Menurut dua perancang mesin multguna Saymsuri dan Abdul Malik, ide pembuatan alat pertanian itu muncul setelah melihat mesin perontok jagung, padi dan kedelai serta mesin pembajak dan penanam benih yang konstruksi dan unitnya masing-masing terpisah.
"Sementara 'Ulik' menyatukan beberapa fungsi mesin pertanian menjadi satu-kesatuan. Dengan alat tersebut pekerjaan petani diyakini akan lebih efisien, murah serta waktu yang dibutuhkan oleh petani lebih singkat," ujar Syamsuri.
