The relativistic tunneling flight time may be superluminal, but it does not imply superluminal signaling

The relativistic tunneling flight time may be superluminal, but it does not imply superluminal signaling

Wavepacket tunneling, in the relativistic limit, is studied via solutions to the Dirac equation for a square barrier potential. Specifically, the arrival time distribution (the time-dependent flux) is computed for wavepackets initiated far away from the barrier, and whose momentum is well below the...
