We consider the time reversal (T) transformation in neutrino oscillations in a model-independent way by comparing the observed transition probabilities at two different baselines at the same neutrino energy. We show that, under modest model…

Time reversal (T) symmetry violations in neutrino oscillations imply the presence of an $L$-odd component in the transition probability at fixed neutrino energy, with $L$ denoting the distance between neutrino source and detector. Within…

We describe a class of modified gravity theories that deform general relativity in a way that breaks time reversal invariance and, very mildly, locality. The algebra of constraints, local physical degrees of freedom, and their linearized…
