Reversibility can refer to:
Time reversibility, a property of some mathematical or physical processes and systems for which time-reversed dynamics are well defined
Reversible diffusion, an example of a reversible stochastic process
Reversible process (thermodynamics), a process or cycle such that the net change at each stage in the combined entropy of the system and its surroundings is zero
Reversible reaction, a chemical reaction for which the position of the chemical equilibrium is very sensitive to the imposed physical conditions; so the reaction can be made to run either forwards or in reverse by changing those conditions

Reversible error, a legal mistake invalidating a trial
