Precision studies for top quark physics are a cornerstone of the Large Hadron Collider program. Polarization, probed through decay kinematics, provides a unique tool to scrutinize the top quark across its various production modes and to explore potential new physics effects. However, the top quark most often decays hadronically, for which unambiguous identification of its decay products sensitive to top quark polarization is not possible. In this Letter, we introduce a jet flavor tagging method to significantly improve spin analyzing power in hadronic decays, going beyond exclusive kinematic information employed in previous studies. We provide parametric estimates of the improvement from flavor tagging with any set of measured observables and demonstrate this in practice on simulated data using a Graph Neural Network (GNN). We find that the spin analyzing power in hadronic decays can improve by approximately 20% (40%) compared to the kinematic approach, assuming an efficiency of 0.5 (0.2) for the network.

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.

Colliders are Testing neither Locality via Bell's Inequality nor Entanglement versus Non-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.
