Entanglement and Bell Correlation in Electron-Exchange Collisions

Abstract: Elastic collisions between initially unpolarized electrons and hydrogenlike atoms are discussed, aiming to analyze the entanglement properties of the correlated final spin system. Explicit spin-dependent interactions are neglected and electron exchange only is taken into account. We show the final spin system to be completely characterized by a single spin correlation parameter depending on scattering angle and energy. Its numerical value identifies the final spins of the collision partners to be either in the… Show more

“…Simple phenomenological arguments based on the properties of ρ and ω mesons also lead to the conclusion that the quark-line disconnected contribution is O(1%). A calculation with domain-wall quarks now gives a non-zero result in agreement with this expectation [8].…”

“…The present error on a HLO μ , ∼ 4 × 10 −10 , with a fractional accuracy of 0.6%, constitutes the main uncertainty of the SM prediction. An alternative evaluation of a HLO μ can be obtained by lattice QCD calculations [6][7][8][9][10][11]. Even if current lattice QCD results…”

“…In two recent publications, Blum and Lohmann [1] and Lohmann et al [2] discussed a tunable entanglement in elastic electron collisions with atomic hydrogen or light alkali atoms, where explicitly spin-dependent interactions may be neglected and the process is completely described by two independent parameters, namely the absolute angle-differential cross section (DCS) and a spin-correlation parameter P , which (except for the opposite sign) is the exchange asymmetry A ex that was measured by the Bielefeld [3,4] and NIST [5] groups many years ago. Due to the available experimental data, Lohmann et al [2] presented results for P = −A ex from various close-coupling calculations for atomic hydrogen and sodium, but only for selected energies as a function of the scattering angle, and for lithium, but only at selected angles as a function of energy.…”

“…The latter extreme case corresponds to the well-known situation of two spins forming a combined spin-0 system. Blum and Lohmann [1] analyzed in detail the spin density matrix of the combined (projectile + target electron) system after the collision. Specifics can be found in their paper.…”
