Can We Investigate Direct Time Reversal Violation?
نویسندگان
چکیده
We illustrate a theoretical condition under which a two-body decay of a resonance violates time reversal invariance. Moreover, we examine some cases for which this condition looks particularly simple. As a consequence, we deduce tests of time reversal violation for weak decays involving spinning particles.

Cp Violation
Three possibilities for the origin of CP violation are discussed: (1) the Standard Model in which all CP violation is due to one parameter in the CKM matrix, (2) the superweak model in which all CP violation is due to new physics and (3) the Standard Model plus new physics. A major goal of B physics is to distinguish these possibilities. CP violation implies time reversal violation (TRV) but di...
متن کاملSearching for T-Violating, P-Conserving New Physics with Neutrons
The observance of parity conserving time reversal violation in light quark systems could signal the presence of physics beyond the Standard Model. I discuss the implications of low-energy time reversal tests for the existence of such T-violating, P-conserving (TVPC) interactions. I argue that searches for permanent electric dipole moments (EDM’s) and direct TVPC searches provide complementary i...
متن کاملViolation of Time-Reversal Invariance and CPLEAR Measurements
Motivated by the recent CPLEAR measurement on the time-reversal non-invariance, we review the situation concerning the experimental measurements of charge conjugation, parity violation and time reversibility, in systems with non-Hermitean Hamiltonians. This includes in particular neutral meson systems, like K0 − K̄0, D0 − D̄0 and B0 − B̄0. We discuss the formalism that describes particle-antiparti...
متن کاملOn the Way to Experimental Test of the Time Reversal Invariance in the Nuclear Reactions
Time (T) violation can be related with charge-parity (CP) violation through the CPT theorem. The CP violation was discovered experimentally in the K0-meson decays about 35 years ago. The T violating interaction related with the CP violation violates parity as well. However, an extension of the theory beyond the locality of the interactions might violate the CPT theorem. The result of the CPLEAR...
متن کاملTime-reversal violation as loop-antiloop symmetry breaking: the Bessel equation, group contraction and dissipation
We show that the Bessel equation can be cast, by means of suitable transformations, into a system of two damped/amplified parametric oscillator equations. The relation with the group contraction mechanism is analyzed and the breakdown of loop-antiloop symmetry due to group contraction manifests itself as violation of time-reversal symmetry. A preliminary discussion of the relation between some ...
