Joe, Take a look at this article. http://arxiv.org/pdf/1109.6562v1 Basically, superluminal neutrinos radiating via the same mechanism as Cerenkov radiation. These authors calculate that neutrinos reaching the detector would have an energy of ~12.5 GeV. The OPERA scientists report an average energy at the detector of 28.1 GeV. For now, I’m going with Sheldon’s calculation because it requires no change in my thinking. I hate change. Dave
