We implement the entanglement harvesting protocol, in which two Unruh-DeWitt detectors become entangled through local interactions with a quantum field, for the first time in the vicinity of a black hole. Our study, focusing on the BTZ…

Despite multipartite entanglement being a global property of a quantum state, a number of recent works have made it clear that it can be quantified using only local measurements. This is appealing because local measurements are the easiest…
