We present a systematic analysis of Bell nonlocality and entanglement in χcJ(J=0,1,2) decays into baryon pair(BBˉ), with particular emphasis on their production via the process e+e−→ψ(2S)→γχcJ at BESIII. From the baryon-antibaryon spin density matrix, we construct measurable Bell observables and concurrence, revealing a striking hierarchy of quantum correlations: χc0 decays exhibit maximal violation and entanglement; χc1 decays violate Bell inequalities for θ1∈(0,π) with angle-modulated strength; we find that the BBˉ pair in χc2 decays is in a separable state, and no indication of Bell inequality violation is observed. We provide complete analytical results for J=0,1 and quantitative, uncertainty-aware estimations for J=2 based on experimental inputs from BESIII. These results establish the χcJ system produced via this radiative transition as a novel and promising platform for testing quantum entanglement and Bell nonlocality in high-energy collisions.
