Invariably, time-reversal symmetry (TRS) violation in a state of matter is identified with static magnetism in it. Here, a directional scalar spin chiral order (DSSCO) phase is introduced that disobeys this basic principle: it breaks TRS…

We apply the large-$N_c$ expansion to the time-reversal-invariance-violating (TV) nucleon-nucleon potential. The operator structures contributing to next-to-next-to-leading order in the large-$N_c$ counting are constructed. For the TV and…
The measurement of transverse spin effects in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering is an important part of the COMPASS physics program. In the years 2002-2004 data were taken by scattering a 160 GeV muon beam on a transversely polarized…

Symmetries have a crucial role in today's physics. In this thesis, we are mostly concerned with time reversal invariance (T-symmetry). A physical system is time reversal invariant if its underlying laws are not sensitive to the direction of…
The charge exchange of vector polarised deuterons on a polarised hydrogen target has been studied in a high statistics experiment at the COSY-ANKE facility at a deuteron beam energy of Td = 726 MeV. By selecting two fast protons at low…
In the theory of resonant scattering, the double differential cross section involves the computation of a multifold integral of a 4-point correlation function, which generalizes the traditional 2-point correlation function of Van-Hove for…
The violation of parity (P) and time-reversal (T) symmetry is enhanced in the LaS, LaO and LuO molecules due to the existence of states of opposite parity with small energy differences and the presence of heavy nuclei. We calculate the…
T-odd angular correlations in ternary fission of 233-U and 235-U nuclei by slow polarized neutrons are not related to TRI (time reversal invariance) violation, but are caused by an effective spin-orbit interaction in the final state.
Atomic and molecular electric dipole moments are calculated within the minimal supersymmetric standard model. Present experiments already provide strong bounds on the combination of phases responsible for the dipole moments of the neutron…
