Table-Top Time Reversal Violation

Abstract

Many electrical and mechanical systems with two normal modes are appropriate for illustrating the quantum mechanics of neutral kaons. The illustration of CP- or time-reversal-violation in the neutral kaon system by mechanical or electrical analogues is more subtle. Some possibilities which could be realized in a table-top demonstration are suggested.
