the verdict
COMMON KNOWLEDGE
Legacy classification; evidence review pending
Recorded sources
no sources on either side

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that particles can be accelerated to speeds infinitesimally close to the speed of light?

Particles are routinely accelerated to ultrarelativistic speeds (infinitesimally close to the speed of light) in particle accelerators and astrophysical environments, making this statement common knowledge.

The analysis

The claim states that particles can be accelerated to speeds infinitesimally close to the speed of light. This is a well-established physical reality demonstrated in particle physics, colliders (like the LHC), and astrophysics (ultrarelativistic jets), rendering it common knowledge.
