Abstract
At request of the authors, this article has been retracted by IOP Publishing in light of clear evidence that the results and conclusions are no longer valid. While reviewing the research simulation facility in their laboratory the authors noted that the coordinate transformation used from one of their simulation packages (OPERA) to another (EGS4nrc) was in error, thus invalidating the results of this published article. We thank the authors for notifying us so that the publication record can be amended accordingly.
