• Authors: Jan Sperling and Elizabeth Agudelo
• Abstract summary: We show that particle entanglement and field entanglement are actually distinct phenomena that can occur and be observed independently of each other. This conclusion has direct implications for quantum technology which can harness those independent forms of entanglement in practical scenarios.

• Abstract: Nature allows one to explore a manifold of remarkable quantum effects. Most prominently, quantum entanglement can be observed in many-particle systems, between multiple quantized fields, and in hybrid combinations thereof. This diversity, however, also leads to contradicting conclusions about what truly constitutes entanglement in any given physical scenario. By explicitly allowing various perspectives, we rigorously consider different notions of entanglement in the context of first and second quantization. By providing instructive examples, we show that particle entanglement and field entanglement are actually distinct phenomena that can occur and be observed independently of each other. This conclusion not only affects our fundamental understanding but has direct implications for quantum technology which can harness those independent forms of entanglement in practical scenarios.

  Two particles are identical if all their intrinsic properties, such as spin and charge, are the same. Quantum mechanics is seen as a normative and algorithmic theory guiding an agent to assess her subjective beliefs represented as (coherent) sets of gambles. We show how sets of exchangeable observables (gambles) may be updated after a measurement and discuss the issue of defining entanglement for indistinguishable particle systems.
