Time-reversal frameness and superselection.

We show that appropriate superpositions of motional states are a reference frame resource that enables breaking of time-reversal superselection so that two parties lacking knowledge about the other’s direction of time can still communicate. We identify the time-reversal reference frame resource states and determine the corresponding frameness monotone, which connects time-reversal frameness to entanglement. In contradistinction to other studies of reference frame quantum resources, this is the first analysis that involves an antiunitary rather than unitary representation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
