ggohil Posted May 24, 2001 Report Share Posted May 24, 2001 I received this article by e mail. Do not not if the facts are true. It's incredible! But true. An Indian boy in his twelfth standard has disproved Einstein's "Theory of Relativity." Shocked??? Read on. Sudarshan Reddy has theoretically proven the existence of a subatomic particle which can travel at speeds greater than that of light, thereby challenging one of the fundamental postulates of the "Theory of Relativity." In his recent research paper submitted to the "Institute of Advanced Physics(IAP)" at Trieste, (Italy) Sudarshan has proved the existence of a class of subatomic particles alled 'leptons', which can travel faster than light. The international physics community has been shell shocked by this discovery. Dr.Massimo Martelli, President of the IAP has this to say about the paper submitted by Sudarshan: " After a long, careful and critical analysis, I can confidently say that Sudarshan 's research paper show a tremendous leap in our understanding of physics as his investigation mounts up on 'leptons'. His work builds substantially on the work of Einstein and others in the field of relativity. When physicists from Princeton University tried to measure Sudarshan's IQ with an IQ-meter (at the American embassy in Delhi), the meter broke down, simply because it was not calibrated to measure such high IQ. This was reported in 'Times of India.' Prof. Carl Uppsala, Chairman of the Nobel subcommittee for physics has confirmed that Sudarshan has been shortlisted for the Nobel prize in physics for the year 2001. Sudarshan, incidentally, is the brother of Madhu Reddy, the Indian whiz kid who developed an operating system superior to Microsoft Windows. We should all be very proud of these boys. Please forward this email to as many Indians as you can.

ggohil Posted May 31, 2001 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2001 I had E mailed to Norwegian Nobel Committee, asking to verify the information but no reply yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
animesh Posted June 22, 2001 Report Share Posted June 22, 2001 Many years back, some physicists including Prof. Sudarshan (yes, name is same ) gave the theory of tachyons which can move faster than light in vacuum but at the same time, they do not violate the theory of relativity. Such particles have still not been confirmed. Also, the word "lepton" is not new in Physics. Leptons are a class of particles the most well known of which is electron. Muons also belong to this group. And NO, they do not travel faster than light can travel in vacuum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 15, 2003 Report Share Posted June 15, 2003 One should be more humble than a blade of grass in the street. If one has a high a IQ use it in service to Guru and Gouranga otherwise it is a Big waiste . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 There is a proven phenomenon in which photons themselves can exceed the normal speed of light in vacuum. Only at that speed it loses the power to carry any information! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
