abstract

We consider a pair of unstable fermions in a spin-entangled state. After the decay of one fermion, a spin measurement is performed on the surviving partner, with a Stern-Gerlach experiment or similar. The measurement not only projects the spin of the surviving fermion, but is also physically equivalent to a spin projection for the decayed one -- even when it no longer exists. This post-selection effect would be experimentally accessible using muon pairs in a maximally-entangled state, produced either in the decay of a scalar particle, or in $e^+ e^-$ collisions at wide angles.

  1. Quantum detection of CP violation in the $t\bar{t}$ system: tomography

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Polar-angle tomography reconstructs the ttbar production density matrix while b–lepton azimuthal sine modulations linearly probe CP-odd Wtb decay couplings, separating production from decay CP violation.

  2. Quantum detection of CP violation in the $t\bar{t}$ system: production

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    CP-odd SMEFT top interactions appear as ΔB and antisymmetric C_A in the tt̄ production density matrix; direct markers beat most QI measures for CP sensitivity at LHC and FCC-ee.

  3. Entanglement redistribution of hyperon-antihyperon pair via sequential decay

    hep-ph 2026-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In e+e−→ψ→Ξ(→Λπ)Ξ̄(→Λ̄π), the ΛΛ̄ pair's concurrence and negativity can decrease relative to the mother pair yet stay nonzero except at θ=0 and π, while quantum discord can always increase.
