What is Superluminal Photons............
Answers
Answer:
On quantum scales this may be violated, since the photon may appear to possess a mass caused by its interaction with virtual electron–positron pairs. In sufficiently strong curvature fields, the trajectory of a photon may then be distorted through the interaction of gravity on this mass and on the photon’s polarization vector, so that the photon no longer follows its usual geodesic path through curved space-time. The consequence is that SPE may be violated at quantum scales, the photon’s lightcone is changed, and it may propagate with superluminal velocity. This effect, called gravitational birefringence, can occur because general relativity is not constructed to obey quantum theory. It may still modify our understanding of the origin of the Universe, when the curvature must have been extreme, and perhaps other similar situations like the interior of black holes. For a more detailed discussion of this effect, see Shore and references therein.
Explanation:
Faster-than-light (also superluminal or FTL) communication and travel are the conjectural propagation of information or matter faster than the speed of light. The special theory of relativity implies that only particles with zero rest mass may travel at the speed of light.
