Tachyon - Wikipedia But we now know that a tachyon indicates an instability in a theory that contains it Regrettably, for science fiction fans, tachyons are not real physical particles that appear in nature
Tachyon | Faster-Than-Light, Quantum Mechanics, Particles | Britannica Just as an ordinary particle such as an electron can exist only at speeds less than that of light, so a tachyon could exist only at speeds above that of light, at which point its mass would be real and positive
Tachyons and Their Implications for Causality and Spacetime The term “tachyon” comes from the Greek word “tachys,” meaning swift or fast These particles are intriguing because they challenge our conventional understanding of physics, particularly in relation to the fundamental principles of relativity and causality
Tachyons in Field Theory | Quantum Mechanics, Stability Speed In field theory, a tachyon corresponds to a quantum field with an imaginary mass Mathematically, this is represented by a negative mass squared term in the field equation, typically denoted as m 2 < 0
Tachyon -- from Eric Weissteins World of Physics - Wolfram The word tachyon derives from the Greek (tachus), meaning "speedy " Tachyons have the strange properties that, when they lose energy, they gain speed Consequently, when tachyons gain energy, they slow down The slowest speed possible for tachyons is the speed of light
Tachyon - Wikiwand A tachyon or tachyonic particle is a hypothetical particle that always travels faster than light Physicists posit that faster-than-light particles cannot exist
tachyon - David Darling A tachyon is a hypothetical particle that travels faster than the speed of light (and therefore also travels back in time) The existence of tachyons is allowed by the equations of Einstein's special theory of relativity
tachyon | Encyclopedia. com tachyon (tăk´ēŏn´), hypothetical elementary particle that travels only at speeds exceeding that of light According to the theory of relativity, the speed of light is the limiting velocity for all ordinary material particles
What Are Tachyons And Do They Even Exist? - IFLScience Discussions of these claims often used a shorthand that faster-than-light travel would “make neutrinos tachyons” So, what is a tachyon, and do they exist, even if not in the form of neutrinos?
