SSP2012 - 5th International Symposium on Symmetries in Subatomic Physics

Time reversal invariance violating (TRIV) effects in low energy physics could be very important for a search for new physics, being complementary to neutron and atomic electric dipole moment (EDM) measurements. In this relation, we discuss a sensitivity of some TRIV observables in neutron scattering and nuclear EDMs to different models of time-reversal (CP) violation and their dependencies on nuclear structure. As a measure of a sensitivity of TRIV effects to the value of TRIV nucleon coupling constant, we introduce a coefficient of a “discovery potential”, which shows a possible factor for improving the current limits of the EDM experiments by measuring nuclear TRIV effects.
