Abstract

A new method for the study of time reversal violation is described. It consists of measurements of the forward-backward asymmetry in individual gamma-ray transitions resulting from unpolarized neutron capture in p-wave resonances. An experiment with a $^{113}\mathrm{Cd}$ target performed at the Dubna pulsed neutron source has been analyzed and a limit on the time reversal odd, parity even interaction extracted. The possibility of experiments using the powerful pulsed neutron source at Los Alamos are considered.
