Abstract

There is a theorem that states that there can be no null test of time-reversal invariance (T symmetry) in exclusive reactions; that is, T symmetry does not require any single observable to vanish. This theorem is extended to inclusive reactions. Also, a general argument, that an experimental observable vanishes from T symmetry if a corresponding operator changes sign under time reversal, is shown to be invalid.
