Abstract
The possibility of testing for T-violation in neutron optics experiments is discussed. Three possible schemes of neutron optics experiments to search for T-violation are considered: in dynamic diffraction on a perfect crystal, in a perfect-crystal neutron interferometer, and in the reflection of ultracold neutrons (UCNs) from a material surface. An experiment to search for P-violation in neutron reflection from a material surface is proposed.
