    Can a mod please close his thread?
    Actually, Oerdin's thread has a much better title. This thread has a silly title.

      I'm not interested in what passes for humour or good music in Australia.

          Speaking of Queen, this guy is pretty ****ing good.

            1) There is no way in hell this result stands up to scrutiny
            2) I am a straight man, and I feel uncomfortable enjoying Queen as much as I do. Am I secretly gay?

            EDIT: 3) Holy **** that guy is incredible

              Apparently he's the singer of a Canadian Christian rock band.

                He must smoke a lot of pole in order to get that silky smooth singing voice

                  That is what I tend to think too.

                  I will be watching http://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisp...?confId=155620 though. I think that someone will talk about this Sat. too.

                  Everyone should love Queen.

                        Measurement of the neutrino velocity with the OPERA detector in the CNGS beam
                        http://arxiv.org/abs/1109.4897
                        The OPERA neutrino experiment at the underground Gran Sasso Laboratory has measured the velocity of neutrinos from the CERN CNGS beam over a baseline of about 730 km. The measurement is based on data taken by OPERA in the years 2009, 2010 and 2011. Dedicated upgrades of the CNGS timing system and of the OPERA detector, as well as a high precision geodesy campaign for the measurement of the neutrino baseline, allowed reaching comparable systematic and statistical accuracies. An arrival time of CNGS muon neutrinos with respect to the one computed assuming the speed of light in vacuum of (6.5 +/- 7.4(stat.)((+8.3)(-8.0)sys.))ns was measured corresponding to a relative difference of the muon neutrino velocity with respect to the speed of light (v-c)/c =(2.7 +/-3.1(stat.)((+3.4)(-3.3)(sys.))x10^(-6). The above result, obtained by comparing the time distributions of neutrino interactions and of protons hitting the CNGS target in 10.5 microseconds long extractions, was confirmed by a test performed at the end of 2011 using a short bunch beam allowing to measure the neutrino time of flight at the single interaction level.

                          Why bother to read it? No outsider can reasonably criticize the results of a large experiment.

                          When this is disproved it will be due to a failure to replicate the results, not because somebody who read the paper spotted some flaw.

                          Large physics experiments are among the most complicated centrally planned projects of mankind. No single person can understand them, least of all by reading some 50 page summary.

                            I read it for interest. I didn't know much about OPERA.

                              understood, but I am pointing out that the world of experimental physics is very different from other experimental fields. the projects are so big that replication is a significant hurdle, and individuals cannot possibly understand all of the work that goes into creating and calibrating the experiments.

                                Yes, that is something to keep in mind.

                                Probably many of the people whose names are on it don't really know how it all works.
