Large deviations from the polarization-analyzing power equality and implied breakdown of time reversal invariance
Description
The first test that compares the polarization (P) and the analyzing power (A) from measurements in a nuclear reaction and its inverse is reported. The reactions chosen for the P-A comparisons were the two-nucleon transfers 7Li(3He,p)9Be and 9Be(3He,p)11B, with 14-MeV incident 3He ions, and their inverses studied at the same CM energies. An astonishingly large P-A difference is found. The clear implication is that time-reversal invariance (TRI) is broken in some component of the nuclear interaction, since the polarization-analyzing power equality follows directly from TRI. 5 figures
