Abstract

An interpretation of the superluminal velocity observed by OPERA collaboration is given in terms wave packet distortion of ultrarelativistic massive neutrinos. Standard quantum-mechanical time evolution of physical states can explain the observed Delta x/Delta t > c without violating the fundamental principles of special relativity.
