On The Nature of Tachyons and The Pioneer Anomaly

Anthony Maccini

Abstract

One considers  tachyon repulsive force f from intergalactic space, by Takaaki Musha, as responsible for the rotation speed of galaxies, as not due to dark matter. Comparisons are made between this tachyon force f and dark energy, as an possible explanation  for the pioneer anomaly, and considering the inertial effects of tachyon force f being nonlocal upon the pioneer spacecraft, arising from the vacuum zero point field ZPF, and introduce Mach’s principle as an effect of tachyon force f having an effect on the pioneer spacecraft from the future, because tachyons are regarded as travelling into the past.  One considers various papers by other authors, and come to the conclusion that the reason tachyons may be undetected, as due to relativistic effects where an observer reference frame sees tachyons as ordinary particles, and that because tachyons also travel into the past, in a region of spacetime inaccessible to an co-moving observer, as why tachyons are not observed. But I also present experimental evidence of  the detection of tachyons.
