Tachyons are hypothetical particles that are theorized to travel faster than the speed of light. The concept of tachyons was first introduced by physicist Arnold Sommerfeld in 1904, and further developed by physicist Gerald Feinberg in 1967.
They were given the name tachyon from the Greek word “tachus” which means “speedy”.
