Topic

Faster than Light: What Can Do It and What Can't

Research Statement

Einstein would agree that some things really can move faster than light. What are they?
How do they do it? And is there any way this can be practically useful? To explore the
unusual landscape of the superluminal, a series of seemingly-straightforward
conceptual puzzles are presented along with their sometimes counter-intuitive answers.
How modern technology can make superluminal motion practically useful is then
reviewed.
