MathewOrman,
I looked for a bit at the sites you linked to but I didn't quite understand what you are claiming.
Are you claiming that there is a mechanism for sending data throuh a wire at faster than the speed of light in a vacuum?
Are you disagreeing with any of the basic experiments that have indicated that the speed of light is constant to an observer regardless of the speed of the source of the light relative to the observer? I am sure there are many of these, but the Michelson Morley interference experiment and de Sitters experiments that showed the speed of light from a binary star was the same whether the light was from the star rotating towards the earth or the star rotating away from the earth are two that come to mind.
The underlying theory behind electromagnetism involves the theory of relativity. Are you in disagreement with this?
Particle accelerators do not accelerate particles beyond the speed of light, Instead, the forces acting on the particle work mostly to increase the effective mass of the particle after speeds near light speed are obtained. Do you disagree with the standard interpretation of these experiments?
Yes, there is a mechanism to transfer signals Faster Than The Speed of Light.
It is very simple. It is based on old fundamental postulate
that states that all known force fields are instantaneous.
My technology uses electric force field to propagate information in form of signal using ordinary conductive metal based transmission lines. Normally transmission lines are used in what engineers call
power mode that requires matching input and output impedance.
That mode propagates signals using energy transfer and that
means using motion of electrons in a conducive material.
Since electrons have mass and inertia their propagations speed is not instantaneous. Electrons move with speeds that are less
than the speed of light.
In voltage mode the short segment of transmission line has
an open end that means that there is a open circuit at far end of it.
And no load current ever flows. When electric force field or simply voltage is applied at the input it propagates instantaneously across the conductor length.
But there is also a current flow at the input.
That current is called a displacement current and it is due to
finite capacitance of transmission line. It is (the capacitance)distributed uniformly across entire length of transmission line.
Now, such current flowing through conductor generate self-inductance effect due to finite inductance property of wires used in transmission line. In turn self-inductance generate additional
voltage across the wires which adds up with the source voltage
and forms the output voltage.
In the result the output voltage is not identical with input one.
And that is one of the unwanted effects that must be compensated out in order to construct useful FTL transmission line
segment.
The strength of this unwanted effects is proportional to change of
displacement current velocity.
Which means that for given length of transmission line segment
the input current velocity change rate is dependent on input waveform frequency.
It was chosen by analogy to Maxwell's near field property to
define a rule that will allow constructing FTL transmission line segments with minimal self-inductance effects.
And the rule is that the segment length must be smaller than 1/4 of the wavelength for the highest frequency component that is
to be propagated through the FTL transmission line segment.
Using such rule one can construct FTL transmission line segment with minimal self-inductance effect.
And by adding self-inductance compensation circuit one gets a practical FTL signal transmission line segment of a finite length
for given signal with finite frequency spectrum.
Now for constructing continuous FTL transmission line the second rule was defined
which is to use active electronic components that would buffer and connect the transmission line segments
preserving voltage mode.
Electronic circuit that will function as such is a very high input impedance unity gain amplifier with very low output impedance.
Son now one can construct continuous FTL signal transmission lines.
I have started this Post to show that there is nothing Magical about my FTL data transmission lines
and that there is no new physics involved and any average skill person can build and test the FTL signal transmission phenomena
using simple of the shelf components.
Or even simulate it using one of the most popular and available free of charge electronic circuit simulator like LTpsice.
To answer you questions:
The speed of light in vacuum is constant.
Maxwell laws or his mathematical model of EM wave propagation defines the speed of light constant relative to the source.
Particle in the accelerator will not travel with speed of light because the microwave field that is used
propagates with speed of light. Standard interpretation ignores the fact that particle is traveling trough noisy force field gradients of all known kind
(electric, magnetic and gravity). The only difference between the accelerator and microwave oven is that in accelerator one can study the collision effects
and particle travel in controlled path. In microwave oven particle motion path is not controlled and collision are difficult or impossible to study.
But all the recitation types are duplicated (IR,UV, X-RAY and so on).
Which is a prove that electromagnetic field is responsible for spontaneous wide spectrum EM wave emission from particles under observation in both
accelerator and microwave oven.
Michelson Morley interference experiment simply confirms that light travels in straight lines.
One can attach a camera to it and spin it at few thousand of rpm and see the phase shift.
Or use the Sangnac interferometer to see it.
