Color transparency is the vanishing of initial and final state interactions, predicted by QCD to occur in high momentum transfer quasielastic nuclear reactions. For specific reactions involving nucleons, the initial and final state interactions are expected to be dominated by exchanges of pions. We argue that these interactions are also suppressed in high momentum transfer nuclear quasielastic reactions; this is {open_quotes}chiral transparency.{close_quotes} We show that studies of the e{sup 3}He{r_arrow}e{sup {prime}}{Delta}{sup ++}nn reaction could reveal the influence of chiral transparency. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
