abstract
We present results for the differential distributions of jets from non-leptonic decays of polarized top quarks within the Standard Model, including QCD radiative corrections. Our work extends existing results which are only available for semileptonic top quark decays at the parton level. For $t(\uparrow)$ -> b-jet + 2 light jets we compute in particular the QCD-corrected top-spin analysing power of the b-quark jet and the least energetic light jet. The dependence of the results on the choice of the jet recombination scheme is found to be small. In addition we compute the spin analysing power of the thrust axis. Our results constitute a so far missing ingredient to analyse top quark production and subsequent non-leptonic decay at next-to-leading order in alpha_s, keeping the full information on the top quark polarization.

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

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

Polarization, Maximal Concurrence, and Pure States in High-Energy Collisions
Local spin polarization imposes an upper bound on concurrence in two-qubit systems that is saturated by pure states, and this bound lowers maximal entanglement in the polarized e+e- to Z to qqbar process relative to t...

Top-quark spin correlations as a tool to distinguish pseudoscalar $A \to ZH$ and scalar $H \to ZA$ signatures in $Z t \bar t$ final states at the LHC
Angular variables built from lepton directions in fully leptonic ttbar decays can distinguish A to Z H from H to Z A cascades in Z ttbar final states at the HL-LHC, reaching 6.4 to 6.5 sigma for 600/800 GeV 2HDM benchmarks.
