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 $e^{+}{e}^{-}$ colliders, emphasizing how longitudinal beam polarization controls the two-qubit spin density matrix. We study the processes $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to t\bar{t},e^{+}{e}^{-}\to \hat{I}{¼}^{+}\hat{I}{¼}^{-}$ and Bhabha scattering $e^{+}{e}^{-}\to e^{+}{e}^{-}$, representing the mass threshold behavior, the $Z$ pole resonance and the $s/t$-channel interplay. We choose to focus on three key concepts: quantum entanglement via the concurrence $\mathcal{C}$, Bell nonlocality via the optimal Clauser Horne Shimony Holt (CHSH) parameter $\mathcal{B}$, and non-stabilizerness (``magic'') via the second stabilizer Rényi entropy ${\mathcal{M}}_2$. For the $s$-channel-dominated channels, longitudinal polarization mainly reshapes single-spin polarizations while leaving the spin-correlation matrix largely unchanged, rendering $\mathcal{C}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ comparatively robust, but inducing a pronounced variation of ${\mathcal{M}}_2$. In contrast, in Bhabha scattering, polarization modifies the relative contributions of the $s$-channel and $t$-channel and can strongly affect all three observables. The observability of entanglement, Bell nonlocality, and magic exceeds the $5\ddot{I}ƒ$ 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 $e^{+}{e}^{-}$ colliders will provide a unique opportunity to experimentally explore and influence quantum resources in particle interactions.
