Abstract

Quantum phases provide a connection between gravitation and quantum information, which proposes a novel avenue to explore the properties of space-time. In this paper, we investigate the quantum correlations (QCs) of neutrinos in the Kerr--Newman space-time for both zero- and nonzero-angular-momentum propagation. The results show that, for zero-angular-momentum propagation, the oscillation periods of the survival probability and QCs progressively decrease with propagation distance in the inward direction. In the outward direction, increasing $M$ lengthens the oscillation periods of $P_{ν_e\rightarrowν_e}$, entanglement, and the monogamy of nonlocality, whereas increasing angular momentum $a$ or charge $Q$ shortens them. For nonzero-angular-momentum propagation, the metric parameters also generate local profile modulations through additional two-path interference terms, rather than merely rescaling the oscillation period. Furthermore, we find that, despite differences in their variation ranges, entanglement and coherence exhibit highly consistent oscillation behaviors in both propagation cases. These findings provide a comprehensive understanding for the neutrino-based relativistic quantum information.

Influence of quantum decoherence on the survival of quantumness in neutrino oscillations

Jilali Loulijat, Abdallah Slaoui, Mohamed Gouighri +1 more

This study examines the dynamics of quantumness in two-flavor neutrino oscillations subjected to a dephasing channel, using representative oscillation parameters associated with the KamLAND, MINOS, and Daya Bay experiments. We analyze three complementary quantum-correlation measures -- entanglement of formation (EOF), quantum discord (QD), and local quantum uncertainty (LQU) -- within an effective two-qubit description. In the unitary case, all three measures display oscillatory behavior controlled by flavor mixing, and their amplitudes are strongly shaped by the relevant mixing angle. MINOS exhibits the largest correlations because $θ_{23}$ is close to maximal, KamLAND shows intermediate values associated with the solar sector, and Daya Bay yields smaller correlations due to the relatively small value of $θ_{13}$. Under dephasing, the off-diagonal coherence terms are suppressed and the three quantifiers decrease accordingly, while QD remains non-zero in regimes where entanglement is weak. For pure states, LQU satisfies $\mathcal{U}=\mathcal{C}^2$ and therefore tracks entanglement monotonically, whereas QD provides a broader witness of non-classical correlations. These results provide a compact quantum-information description of two-flavor neutrino oscillations in both coherent and dephased regimes. We also quantify the sensitivity of these observables to oscillation and decoherence parameters, showing that their main added value relative to flavor probabilities is their direct response to off-diagonal coherence loss.

Dynamics of quantum information resources in two-flavor neutrino oscillations

K. El Bouzaidi, Abdallah Slaoui, L.B. Drissi +2 more

Abstract The burgeoning intersection of particle physics and quantum information science unveils significant connections, particularly in the context of neutrinos–fundamental particles that challenge our understanding of mass, mixing, and coherence at the quantum level. This work investigates the quantum informational aspects of two-flavor neutrino oscillations, treating neutrino flavor change as a dynamic carrier of quantum resources in addition to a fundamental lepton physics phenomenon. Employing realistic experimental parameters from the Daya Bay, KamLAND, and MINOS experiments, we systematically evaluate four key quantum metrics: quantum coherence, entanglement, local quantum Fisher information (LQFI), and Bell non-locality. Our formalism utilizes time-dependent density matrices, incorporating environmental interactions modeled by a correlated dephasing channel to capture both Markovian (memoryless) and non-Markovian (memory-retaining) regimes. In the Markovian regime, coherence and LQFI exhibit exponential decay, with MINOS demonstrating the highest persistence of quantum features attributed to its long baseline (735 km) and high energy range (0.5–50 GeV). KamLAND, with a medium baseline and moderate energy, shows intermediate behavior, while Daya Bay’s short baseline limits the survival of these quantum properties. Notably, Bell non-locality violation in the Markovian regime is exclusive to MINOS under high classical correlation strength, whereas Daya Bay and KamLAND remain within classical bounds. Across both regimes, particularly the non-Markovian where information backflow enhances coherence and entanglement, MINOS consistently emerges as the most robust setup for the preservation of quantum information.

Gravitational effects on quantum correlations in three-flavor neutrino oscillations

Guang-Jie Wang, Lijuan Li, Tao Wu +3 more

Abstract In this paper, we explore the quantum properties of three-flavor neutrino propagating in a Schwarzschild metric. It is found that the different strength of gravitational effects are obtained by adjusting the magnitude of $$\mathrm GM$$ G M arising in the oscillation phase. Using the weak field approximations, we show that the gravitational effects can make the entanglement oscillates over a large rage when $$\textrm{GM}=5.1\times 10^8 \, \textrm{Km}$$ GM = 5.1 × 10 8 Km and $$\textrm{GM}=7\times 10^7 \, \textrm{Km}$$ GM = 7 × 10 7 Km , respectively, Moreover, for $$\textrm{GM}=4.8\times 10^8 \, \textrm{Km}$$ GM = 4.8 × 10 8 Km and $$\textrm{GM}=9.3\times 10^7 \, \textrm{Km}$$ GM = 9.3 × 10 7 Km , the suppression of the entanglement can be observed due to the gravitational effects. Meanwhile, in this case, the gravitational effects also make the distribution of entanglement tighter through investing the entanglement complete monogamy relation. Furthermore, we examine the gravitational effects on the violation of the Svetlichny inequality to study the nonlocality of the system. It is shown that when $$\textrm{GM}=6\times 10^8 \, \textrm{Km}$$ GM = 6 × 10 8 Km and $$\textrm{GM}=7\times 10^7 \, \textrm{Km}$$ GM = 7 × 10 7 Km , the gravitational effects make the Svetlichny parameters always greater than 4, implying that the genuine tripartite nonlocality of the system is always present. However, the gravitational effects also restrain the violation of the Svetlichny to make the regions of the absence of nonlocality increase. The gravitational effects on the monogamy property of nonlocality lies in the change of the effective bound of the maximum bipartite nonlocality of the neutrinos system. Therefore, our investigations may be helpful to understanding of quantumness of the neutrinos system in curved space-time.

Quantum correlations in terms of neutrino oscillation probabilities

Ashutosh Kumar Alok, Subhashish Banerjee, Sankagiri Uma Sankar

Neutrino oscillations provide evidence for the mode entanglement of neutrino mass eigenstates in a given flavour eigenstate. Given this mode entanglement, it is pertinent to consider the relation between the oscillation probabilities and other quantum correlations. In this work, we show that all the well-known quantum correlations, such as the Bell's inequality, are directly related to the neutrino oscillation probabilities. The results of the neutrino oscillation experiments, which measure the neutrino survival probability to be less than unity, imply Bell's inequality violation.

Neutrino oscillations in discrete-time quantum walk framework

Arindam Mallick, Sanjoy Mandal, C. M. Chandrashekar

Here we present neutrino oscillation in the framework of quantum walks. Starting from a one spatial dimensional discrete-time quantum walk we present a scheme of evolutions that will simulate neutrino oscillation. The set of quantum walk parameters which is required to reproduce the oscillation probability profile obtained in both, long range and short range neutrino experiment is explicitly presented. Our scheme to simulate three-generation neutrino oscillation from quantum walk evolution operators can be physically realized in any low energy experimental set-up with access to control a single six-level system, a multiparticle three-qubit or a qubit–qutrit system. We also present the entanglement between spins and position space, during neutrino propagation that will quantify the wave function delocalization around instantaneous average position of the neutrino. This work will contribute towards understanding neutrino oscillation in the framework of the quantum information perspective.

Quantum coherence and entanglement in neutral-current neutrino oscillation in matter

M. M. Ettefaghi, Z. Askaripour Ravari

Abstract Although neutrino–antineutrino states originating from neutral-current interactions are blind concerning the flavor state, an oscillation pattern is predicted provided that both neutrino and antineutrino are detected. This issue arises from both the coherence and entanglement of the neutrino–antineutrino states. Based on quantum resource theory, we use the $$l_1$$ l 1 -norm and concurrence to quantify quantum coherence and entanglement, respectively. Considering the localization properties by the wave packet approach and a matter potential which appears when neutrino and antineutrino propagate in a material medium, we obtain the $$l_1$$ l 1 -norm and concurrence. We see that the neutrino and antineutrino remain entangled for larger baseline lengths when they propagate in a material medium. In the case of the coherence property, the $$l_1$$ l 1 -norm decreases in comparison to the corresponding one in vacuum. However, its damping occurs for larger distances.
