abstract
Quantum entanglement between the two $W$ bosons resulting from the decay of a Higgs boson may be investigated in the dilepton channel $H \to WW \to \ell \nu \ell \nu$ using laboratory-frame observables that only involve the charged leptons $\ell=e,\mu$. The dilepton invariant mass distribution, already measured by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations at the LHC, can be used to observe the quantum entanglement of the $WW$ pair with a statistical sensitivity of $7\sigma$ with Run 2 data, and of $6\sigma$ when including theoretical systematics. As a by-product, the relation between $W$ rest frame (four-dimensional) angular distributions, $H \to WW$ decay amplitudes, and spin correlation coefficients, is written down.

Qubit-qubit-qutrit quantum correlations in $H \to f \bar f V$
In h→τ^-τ^+ Z decays, the spin state is genuinely qubit-qubit-qutrit entangled almost everywhere, violates Bell inequalities throughout, and carries up to 1.95 bits of non-local magic.

Experimental prospects for quantum decoherence measurements at colliders
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.

Quantum Tomography and Entanglement in Semi-Leptonic $h\to VV^*$ Decays at Higher Orders
Semi-leptonic h→VV* decays retain an effective two-qutrit quantum description under NLO QCD and electroweak corrections, unlike the fully leptonic h→4ℓ channel.

Extracting a Toponium Signal at the LHC with Spin and Quantum Information Tools
Spin and quantum-information observables add only marginal statistical power beyond kinematic variables for isolating toponium in near-threshold top-pair events, but improve interpretability.

Parameter Inference from Final-State Entanglement in Higgs Decays
With a spin/color-weighted entanglement entropy built from Higgs branching ratios, the Standard Model Higgs and W masses sit near the global maximum, and the preferred coupling ratio is SM-like.

Spin versus Magic: Lessons from Gluon and Graviton Scattering
For 2 to 2 scattering of massless spin-1/2 to spin-2 particles, the averaged generated magic decreases monotonically with spin, with maxima well below the two-qubit upper bound.

Entanglement through high-energy scattering in noncommutative quantum electrodynamics
In noncommutative QED, tree-level photon and head-on fermion scattering with opposite helicities give the same concurrence as gluon scattering, maximal at a 90-degree scattering angle, while a right-angle fermion coll...

Quantum tomography beyond the leading order
NLO corrections to angular distributions can be subtracted as a background, allowing quantum tomography of H to ZZ to four leptons to be performed with the well-defined leading-order spin interpretation.

Measuring Quantum Discord at the LHC
The authors derive closed-form formulas for quantum discord in the ttbar system and predict it can be measured at the LHC with sub-percent precision using the kinematic method.

Probing new physics in the top sector using quantum information
In top-pair production at the LHC, the quantum-information measures magic, concurrence, trace distance, and fidelity distance each respond most strongly to new physics in different kinematic regions, so no single meas...

Colliders are not Testing Locality via Bell's Inequality nor Providing an Unconditional Proof of Entanglement
Collider measurements of final-state momenta alone cannot certify Bell nonlocality or entanglement, because the measured angular distribution is itself a local hidden variable model.

Looking into the quantum entanglement in $H\to ZZ^\star$ at LHC within SMEFT framework
Using symmetrized angular asymmetries from simulated H->ZZ*->4l events, the authors reconstruct the ZZ* density matrix and report a positive concurrence lower bound for all scanned SMEFT couplings.
