The OPERA neutrino velocity result and the synchronisation of clocks
http://xxx.lanl.gov/abs/1109.6160
The CERN-OPERA experiment claims to have measured a one-way speed of neutrinos that is apparently faster than the speed of light c. One-way speed measurements such as these inevitably require a convention for the synchronisation of clocks in non-inertial frames since the Earth is rotating. We argue that the effect of the synchronisation convention is not properly taken into account in the OPERA analysis and may well invalidate their interpretation of superluminal neutrino velocity.
