| | Time-reversal symmetry |
 | | Of course, this is not a spurious quirk of the mathematics we use, but a reflection of a deeper fact that by mixing the neutron and proton wave functions we introduce complex mixing coefficients that do affect the time-reversal properties of the mixed wave function. |
 | | When no conserved symmetry is imposed, all densities are complex, and their real and imaginary parts are either symmetric or antisymmetric. |
 | | On the other hand, as shown in Table 4, the general case corresponding to no conserved symmetries (e.g., for rotating states) requires that all the pn densities be complex. |
