The resulting theory is rotationally and Lorentz Principal reason for postulating the tachyon corridor is to make the three-dimensional theory internally cons istent.

It has been shown' that a classical three-dimensional causal theory of tachyons can be developedīy combining the results of the inversion-noninvariant one-dimensional theory'' with the idea Provide the means for determining the direction of the tachyon corridor. The kinematics of tachyons, as well as luxons emitted by them,Īre then worked out and several characteristics of the tachyon corridor follow from them. Theory to derive the general transformationĮquations between inertial frames with superluminal Order to generalize the one-dimensional causal theory of tachyons to three dimensions. The existence of a preferred axis in space, called the tachyon corridor, has recently been proposed in (Received 29 October 1973 revised manuscript received 30 October 1974) Departement de Physique, Universite du Quebec, Trois-Rivieres, Quebec, Canada
