Two-Particle Correlations and $B^0\bar{B}^0$ Mixing

Abstract

We study the EPR correlation implied by the entangled wavefunction of the B0Bˉ0B^0\bar{B}^0 pair created by the Υ\Upsilon (4S) resonance. The analysis uses the basis provided by the mass eigenstates B1,B2B_1,B_2 rather than the flavour states B0,Bˉ0B^0, \bar{B}^0. Data on the inclusive dilepton charge ratio are close to the expectation of quantum mechanics, but nearly 8 standard deviations away from that of complete decoherence.
