I have been wondering recently about the neutron dipole moment, after looking it up with the limited things available on the internet (to my knowledge anyway :) ) I have a few questions hopefully someone could answer for me. Firstly of the three symmetries, as I understand it, Parity, Charge Conjugation and Time reversal what symmetries would the dipole moment of a neutron be violating? Wouldn't it be Parity and Time reversal? Would this explanation (below) therefore make sense, since this implies that time reversal include parity.
"T is the law of time reversal symmetry, if a particle were spinning and being filmed, then the footage were to be reversed and inverted, if the particle were perfectly symmetrical then in the reversed and inverted footage the particle would look as though it were spinning forward. If not this would prove that T-symmentry had been violated."
Sorry for asking so many questions ;)
thanks :)
