Superbradyons of Luis Gonzalez-Mestres.
Ruslan A. Sharipov.
Massive particles with the critical speed different from the speed of light were considered by Luis González-Mestres in his paper arXiv:astro-ph/9505117. This was in 1995, that is 27 years before the theory considered here, called the "3D-brane universe model", was developed. Believing that their critical speed is greater than the speed of light, in 1997 in his paper arXiv:physics/9702026 he called such particles superbradyons. For the energy and momentum components of superbradyons Luis González-Mestres wrote formulas very similar to our formulas

With one difference: instead of a function g with two zeros in the denominator, he uses unity. This means that Luis González-Mestres did not consider superbradyons in a gravitational field. In his subsequent work he suggested that superbradyons may be contained in cosmic rays.
Superbradyons by Luis González-Mestres don't fit within Einstein's standard theory of relativity. However, they fit perfectly within the framework of the theory discussed here, called the "3D-brane universe model".
