Quantum Tomography of Fermion Pairs in $e^+e^-$ Collisions: Longitudinal Beam Polarization Effects
Abstract
We present a quantum tomography study of fermion pair production at future colliders, emphasizing how longitudinal beam polarization controls the two-qubit spin density matrix. We study the processes and Bhabha scattering , representing the mass threshold behavior, the pole resonance and the -channel interplay. We choose to focus on three key concepts: quantum entanglement via the concurrence , Bell nonlocality via the optimal Clauser Horne Shimony Holt (CHSH) parameter , and non-stabilizerness (``magic'') via the second stabilizer R\'enyi entropy . For the -channel-dominated channels, longitudinal polarization mainly reshapes single-spin polarizations while leaving the spin-correlation matrix largely unchanged, rendering and comparatively robust, but inducing a pronounced variation of . In contrast, in Bhabha scattering, polarization modifies the relative contributions of the -channel and -channel and can strongly affect all three observables. The observability of entanglement, Bell nonlocality, and magic exceeds the level when both statistical and systematic uncertainties are included, establishing the fermion pair systems as ideal laboratories for quantum-information studies in high energy leptonic collisions. With optimized beam polarization, future colliders will provide a unique opportunity to experimentally explore and influence quantum resources in particle interactions.
