We propose techniques to observe the correlation of the spins of top quarks and antiquarks at the Tevatron and the LHC. Observation of the spin correlation would confirm that the top quark decays before its spin flips, and would place a lower bound on the top-quark width and V_tb. The spin correlation may also be a useful tool to study the weak decay amplitude of the top quark.

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

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    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.

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

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    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.

  3. 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

    hep-ph 2025-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    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.
