alt_f13 Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 Were they invented purely because of the math or do they actually have basis in measurable reality? And if energy waves produce gravity, would tachyon waves produce anti-gravity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alt_f13 Posted February 26, 2004 Author Share Posted February 26, 2004 Or I could wait for a real answer here. [edit] Isn't the universes expansion rate inreasing? I bet the immergence of mass and energy created an antigravitational tachyon pool (or something simmilar) at the center of the universe. With a net energy of 0, the universe aught to have a deficite of energy somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fafalone Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 Tachyons are a very real part of some of the modern cosmological theories, not just some Star Trek concept that has no basis in reality. A good place to check out how real the theories are is http://arxiv.org, and search for tachyon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
