Neutrinos clocked at light-speed in new Icarus test

Four different neutrino experiments are at work in the massive underground laboratory at Gran Sasso

An experiment to repeat a test of the speed of subatomic particles known as neutrinos has found that they do not travel faster than light.

Results announced in September suggested that neutrinos can exceed light speed, but were met with scepticism as that would upend Einstein's theory of relativity.

A test run by a different group at the same laboratory has now clocked them travelling at precisely light speed.

The results HAVE BEEN POSTED ONLINE
