| Abstract: | The nature of wave front of light radiations from a tachyon is studied from the first principles. The elementary approach employed here yields many novel and interesting results. These results, specially the conical envelope of radiation, bear an excellent analogy to the case of Cerenkov radiation. Finally a possible astrophysical method of searching for the existence of tachyonic celestial objects is discussed. |
