Abstract
Several laws governing the electromagnetic interactions of tachyons are derived, under the hypothesis that tachyons are bradyons as seen by a superluminal observer. The postulate of the existence of the tachyon corridor, which solves the causality problems, is assumed. It is shown that the electromagnetic field produced by tachyonic matter obeys differential relations which are different from Maxwell's equations. The action of a superluminal electromagnetic field on a charged tachyon is discussed, as well as the conservation theorems satisfied by tachyon interactions. The form of the interaction between tachyons and the subluminal electromagnetic field, and hence of the interaction between tachyons and bradyons, is discussed. We obtain an expression for the force on a tachyon in a subluminal field which differs from the Lorentz force. Tachyons in the theory will emit Cerenkow radiation through their coupling to the subluminal, but not the superluminal, field. We find no support for the idea that tachyons will behave as magnetic monopoles.
