Neutrino velocity - Paper

It is very timely yo give here the link to the paper which seems to insert doubts in the concept that light's velocity is not possible to overtake. This is science and we as physicists are proud of it. Now scientists are looking for the source of error in the results. Perhaps there is no such error. Anyway, this is the link to the paper:

Measurement of the neutrino velocity with the OPERA detector in the CNGS beam

ICRER 2011

The international conference on environmental radioactivity has finished. It was held in Hamilton, Canadá organized by McMaster University. The scientific level of the event was quite low and the organziation and practical arrangements was very bad. It was a very bad organized conference and very expensive. There was no enough time for checking posters of participants and a lot of talks were cancelled. This made difficult to follow the pararell sesions. In September it will be announced the place for this conference in 2014. We really hope that the organizers of the conference that year will do much better. Anyway, it is not very difficult to do better than this year.
