In what way is GPS measuring the speed of the neutrions directly? It is not that you have a GPS receiver riding the neutrions from the starting site to the finish site... ;-) The GPS receivers are syncing the reference clocks at both the sites. GPS can be used for time/freq transfer, and is a well established tool for that. I fail to see the meaning of the quoted statement. -- Björn _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
