[edit] Comments

Actually, if you look at the QFT of a tachyonic field, you'd find it does not violate causality. However, it happens to be unstable with no lowest energy state. Phys 22:39, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)

This second statement is not correct. Just because a field is tachyonic when expanded around a certain point of the potential does not mean that there is not a minimum. The Higgs field is such an example. Joshua Davis 06:04, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merger

Maybe this article should be merged with tachyon? I'm not sure what the terminology is, but I would actually suggest that this becomes a subsection of tachyon. Joshua Davis 06:04, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
