I should correct what I said in my post #4 in so far as I didn't really mean latency in the detectors would cause a faster than light speed measurement …. fairly clearly, any latency effect in the detector would return a slower than light speed .. but what about 'latency' at the emitter end ?
How do they know precisely when bunch of neutrinos started to leave the emitter (so as to start the clock, or record the departure time)?
What if some sneak out before they record the departure time ?
The report seems to say that the answer to the above questions are all the function of a statistical model .. which is probabilistic in nature.
Cheers
