Not at all. The only believable results involve charged particles and gamma
appears in those for different reasons.

Relativity is based on WYGIWYS.
Physical reality implies WYGINWYS.

Photons have charge now? Neutrinos have charge now?

Is this why hydrogen doesn't travel at 200c, because the two components are
charged?

By the way, neutron pulses are used commonly to gauge flows and times. No
superlumenal neutrons have been noted. Pretty much time-of-flight for them
too.

But there is still hope for this goofy thought of yours! A neutron is
composed of charged *quarks*, yes that's the ticket. *That* is why
neutrons don't travel faster than light, and gamma applies to them too.

You're still king of that hill you've raised.

The reason we don't come across many things traveling faster than c is simply
that it is bloody fast and requires a lot of energy to get them there.

Muons produced in elastic collisions show how it can be done.

Can you point us to specifics thereon? A Google on
"FTL muon collisions" didn't cough up anything horribly
interesting beyond a presumably tainted (from your
viewpoint, anyway) FAQ:

http://www.physicsguy.com/ftl/html/FTL_part1.html

where Sun-created muons are mentioned. (I for one would
hope satellites such as SOHO can detect muons. I do not
have any data thereon.)

(The FAQ here is actuall rather interesting, going into
some detail on some of the simpler computations one
can do with the stock relativistic examples -- yes, one
of them is a moving train. :-) )
