A tachyon (/ ˈ t æ k i ɒ n /) or tachyonic particle is a hypothetical particle that always travels faster than light. Physicists believe that faster-than-light particles cannot exist because they are inconsistent with the known laws of physics .

2021年11月24日 · But, with tachyons, as energy is taken away, their speed increases. One of the most important and meaningful results from Einstein’s theory of special relativity is the establishing universal speed...

In quantum field theory, a tachyon is a quantum of a field—usually a scalar field—whose squared mass is negative, and is used to describe spontaneous symmetry breaking: The existence of such a field implies the instability of the field vacuum; the field is at a local maximum rather than a local minimum of its potential energy, much like a ...

2025年1月9日 · tachyon, hypothetical subatomic particle whose velocity always exceeds that of light. The existence of the tachyon, though not experimentally established, appears consistent with the theory of relativity, which was originally thought to apply only to particles traveling at or less than the speed of light .

2022年11月8日 · Tachyons are hypothetical particles that always move faster than light. They have never been detected and are believed, by some, to be impossible. Tachyons are through to travel...

1999年10月21日 · Tachyons have never been found in experiments as real particles traveling through the vacuum, but we predict theoretically that tachyon-like objects exist as faster-than-light...

2024年8月9日 · Tachyons are theoretical particles that are predicted to move faster than this universal speed limit. In special relativity, particles that travel at or below the speed of light are described by the relativistic equations, where their energy, …

The energy and momentum of a tachyon must satisfy this relation. You can now deduce many interesting properties of tachyons. For example, they accelerate ( p goes up) if they lose energy ( E goes down).

2023年12月21日 · Turns out, tachyons can exhibit a gravitational force and also absorb photons, rendering them invisible to our instruments. And speaking of the Big Bang, it could have been generated by a tachyon meeting its antimatter counterpart and causing a tear into the quantum vacuum dumping a lot of energy into the real vacuum, starting a new Universe.

The source of this energy by modern physics is called Zero-Point Energy (ZPE). It is faster than light, formless, omnipresent and has the potential to create every form, bringing order out of chaos. Tachyon is a sub atomic particle having the same properties as ZPE, condensed in a form.
