Abstract
The symmetry property of the transition matrix for a reaction producing an isobaric multiplet (or identical particles) is derived from the generalized Pauli principle without any specific assumptions concerning the reaction mechanism. In contrast to previous predictions it is shown that for odd partial waves in the exit channel the cross section will generally not vanish at Θ = π/2 if the channel spin projections of the initial and final channels may be different.
