Top pair production is ideally suited to observe post-decay entanglement, thus providing a novel test of quantum mechanics. We provide top polarised decay amplitudes that can be used to compute semi-analytical predictions and, in particular, to better understand {\em why} the post-decay entanglement arises. We obtain predictions for the LHC, identifying general phase space regions where experimental measurements of $tW$ entanglement are feasible. We also give predictions for polarised $e^+ e^-$ collisions, focusing on the possibility that the post-decay $tW$ entanglement is larger than the $t \bar t$ one.

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Energetic radiation induces decoherence that significantly reduces entanglement in fermion pairs at colliders, with statistically significant signals observable in ttbar(g) at the LHC and tau pairs at Belle II.

    hep-ph 2026-04 conditional novelty 5.0

    Hard final-state radiation measurably destroys the spin entanglement of fermion-antifermion pairs, and the effect should already be visible in LHC ttbar+jet and Belle II tau+tau-gamma data.

    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.
