Real experiment

In a 1964 experiment physicist at CERN, the Europe practicle-physics laboratory near Geneva , generated a beam of pions moving with a speed of 0.99975 c 0.99975c .(where c c is speed of light) with respect to laboratory. This experiment then measure the speed of gamma rays emmited from these rapidly moving sources . What you expect the speed of gamma rays?

equal to the speed of light greater than the speed of light lesser than the speed of light can't determined
