Quantum Tomography of Fermion Pairs in 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 Rényi 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 $5σ$ 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.
