We study time-reversal~(T) asymmetries in the charmless two-body decays of antitriplet bottom baryons. We find that in ${\bf B}_b \to {\bf B}_n P$ with ${\bf B}_b = (\Xi _b ^- , \,\Xi_b^0, \,\Lambda_b)$ and ${\bf B}_n(P)$ a octet baryon…

Single-spin asymmetries were long thought to vanish in high-energy scattering processes because of their specific time-reversal behavior. Time-reversal-odd phenomena, however, appear naturally when one includes effects of intrinsic…
