| contents | In this paper, we propose the regularization principle that resolves the temporal paradoxes associated with faster-than-light particles or tachyons at the macroscopic scale. The principle involves using the properties of the $ζ$-function to regularize the unphysical momenta of tachyons that moves backwards in-time as an infinite sum of physical tachyon momenta that travel forwards in-time. Since, the tachyon moves forward in-time in all interial frames, this ensures that the tachyon processes are paradox-free without invoking the Reinterpretation Principle (RIP). Apart from resolving these paradoxes associated with faster-than-light particles, its other notable consequences especially pertaining to the censorship of naked singularities and faster-than-light communication are also discussed. |
