Add to ORKGWhy does time reversal involve two operations, a temporal reflection and the operation of complex conjugation in quantum mechanics? Why is it that time reversal preserves position and reverses momentum and spin? This puzzle of time reversal in quantum mechanics has been with us since Wigner's first presentation. In this paper, I show that the standard account of time reversal in quantum mechanics can be derived from the natural requirement that time reversal reverses velocities by analyzing the continuity equation
