Abstract

We investigate the entanglement in two-quasiparticle plus triaxial-rotor (PTR) model for the particle-hole configuration π(1h11/2)1ν(1h11/2)1\pi(1h_{11/2})^1 \otimes \nu(1h_{11/2})^{-1}, the particle-particle configuration π(1h11/2)1ν(1h11/2)1\pi(1h_{11/2})^1 \otimes \nu(1h_{11/2})^1, and two-proton particles configuration π(1h11/2)2\pi(1h_{11/2})^2 for different values of the triaxiality parameter. The entanglement between the angular momenta of the two quasiparticles and the total angular momentum is quantified by the three bipartite concurrences C\mathcal{C} of one type of angular momentum with the other two angular momenta and the area F\mathcal{F} of the triangle formed by the bipartite concurrences. Collective chiral and wobbling modes are identified for γ>15\gamma>15^\circ via spin coherent state (SCS) maps and spin squeezed state (SSS) plots. Their entanglement increases from moderate values at the band head to near-maximal values at I=20I=20. The area F\mathcal{F} of the chiral partners changes order as function of II which reflects the crossing of the partner bands as a signature of chirality. For the π(1h11/2)2\pi(1h_{11/2})^2 configuration, the antisymmetrization required by the Pauli exclusion principle causes strong entanglement between the two protons, which significantly amplifies the area F\mathcal{F}. For γ<15\gamma<15^\circ, the lowest bands become various uniformly rotating quasiparticle configurations, which have large values of F\mathcal{F} for all values II.
