Lots of particles decay into other ones, and it can be shown that their
half life (the time after which they have a 50% chance of decaying) gets
longer as they speed up, in accordance with Einstein's equation. This
occurs in particle accelerators and is also how muons were originally
detected, I believe. See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_dilation_of_moving_particles for more
details.
