abstract

We calculate the spin density matrix of top quark pairs for the reaction $e^+e^-\to t\bar{t}X$ to order $\alpha_s$. As an application we show next-to-leading order results for a variety of spin observables for the $t\bar{t}$ system. These include the top quark and antiquark polarizations and $t\bar{t}$ spin-spin correlations as a function of the center-of-mass energy and of the top quark scattering angle for arbitrary longitudinal polarization of the electron/positron beam.

  • Polarization, Maximal Concurrence, and Pure States in High-Energy Collisions hep-ph · 2026-04-20 · unverdicted · none · ref 74 · internal anchor

    An upper bound on concurrence is derived for fixed local polarizations in two-qubit systems, saturated by pure states in some cases, and applied to show reduced maximal entanglement in polarized q qbar pairs from parity-violating Z decays.
