Text: "Electromagnetic and hadronic properties of tachyons." In Recami, Erasmo, ed. Tachyons, monopoles, and related topics: Session of the interdisciplinary seminars on "Tachyons and Related Topics". In the case of electromagnetic properties of tachyons, for a subluminal (slower than the speed of light) transformation, "the vector and scalar potentials are both real." Even longitudinal fields remain real but transverse waves would appear imaginary in other system. "Despite the appearance of imaginary quantities in the transformation laws, many of these imaginary quantities cancel out when it comes to interpreting the laws in terms of actual measurements." Key analysis for the possibility of a ""door"", or coupling, between the scalar electromagnetics and our hadronic electromagnetics. 1st, Erice, September 1-15, 1976. Proceedings. New York: North-Holland Publishing Company, 1978. p. 31-42.
