'Faster-than-light' claim for subatomic particles withdrawn

KYOTO, Japan - A researcher of the international team OPERA gives a presentation of verification experiments at an international conference in Kyoto on June 8, 2012. The research group retracted its claim that subatomic particles known as neutrinos travel faster than the speed of light, following its own verification experiment in May which did not support the assertion.
