Hi All,
Yes I am apprehensive -- as commented by others, the time gap seems unreasonably large for such a small distance between the detectors (in context). The comparison Bojan mentioned re the neutrinos from 1987A and the short gap (three-odd hours from memory) between their arrival and the light's arrival over a distance of 50 Kpc for me rings alarm bells.
I hope it isn't something as basic as the speed of light in a vacuum -v- the speed of light through the medium(s) between the detectors. Will be interesting to see if the result is able to be duplicated independently elsewhere. [Edit: Nope, just realized this can't be the error -- my dopey mistake].
Best,
Les D
