Description

Both the ATLAS Collaboration and the CMS Collaboration have recently observed quantum entanglement in top-quark pairs using Run 2 data; the highest energy scale at which quantum phenomena have ever been probed. I will present new measurements of quantum discord and related quantum observables in ttbar events, focusing on both the dileptonic and single-lepton decay channels. I will discuss the analysis strategy, reconstruction techniques, and the impact of Run 3 data, as well as the implications for future measurements at HL-LHC, highlighting the potential of collider experiments to probe quantum information concepts in novel and experimentally accessible ways.
