Hunting the Faster than Light Tachyon, and Finding Three Unicorns and a Herd of Elephants by Robert Ehrlich
In 1905, Albert Einstein declared speeds greater than light to be impossible. This book describes the author's decades-long search for hypothetical subatomic particles known as tachyons that violate this principle.Robert Ehrlich is an American physicist who holds a PhD in physics from Columbia University, where he participated in the Nobel prize-winning muon neutrino experiment. He retired from George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia, having served 15 years of his 36 years there as physics and astronomy department chair. Dr. Ehrlich is a fellow of the American Physical Society, and his primary area of scholarship is particle physics. He is also well known for his contributions to science education, particularly with simple physics demonstrations, renewable energy, and computer applications in physics education. His 20 books have been translated into six languages.
