This work presents a theoretical framework for enhancing quantum correlations in a hybrid double-cavity optomechanical system that hosts an atomic ensemble. We investigate the role of the coupling phase $\phi$ between cavity 1 and the…

Quantum nonlocality can be revealed "via local contextuality" in qudit-qudit entangled systems with $d > 2$, that is, through the violation of inequalities containing Alice-Bob correlations that admit a local description, and Alice-Alice…
