Just did a very quick google search and found this - couple years old. news.harvard.edu I am sure I read somewhere of more recent developments that succeeded in reducing the speed of light to 0.

The anomalous velocity variations are indicative of transitory quasi quantum states. Consider beta decay tunneling where high speed electrons are ejected out of an unstable nucleus with a velocity that can't surmount the nuclear Coulombic attraction barrier. The electron gets through the barrier by choosing a path that tunnels through it. The tunnel is a transitory state which allows the electron either to enter a complex spacetime not subject to Lorentz invariance or to traverse the tunnel at a rate far exceeding light speed perhaps in another kind of spacetime. We only know it gets through and it shouldn't, so we invent a state of traverse which only can be reconciled by exotic explanations. It might be the case that electron tunneling refutes simple quantum mechanics or special relativity or both since all efforts to reconcile the three have foundered. I believe the plasma demonstration is another of these peculiar quasi quantum state examples which may indeed be provoking qualifications to special relativity.
