• Title: Predicting leptonic CP violation via minimization of neutrino entanglement
• Authors: Gon\c{c}alo M. Quinta, Alexandre Sousa, Yasser Omar
• Abstract summary: We find a theoretical prediction consistent with either no CP-violation or a very small presence of it. We show how a minimization principle of quantum entanglement between the oscillating flavors of a neutrino leads to a unique prediction for the CP-violation phase in the neutrino sector without assuming extra symmetries in the Standard Model.

  We apply a perturbative scheme to derive the non-relativistic Schr"odinger equation in curved spacetime. We calculate the next-to-leading order corrections to the neutron's energy spectrum. While the current precision for observations of ultracold neutrons may not yet enable to probe them, they could still be relevant in the future or in alternative circumstances.

We simulate a Heisenberg evolution using laser-induced entangling interactions and collective spin rotations. We find that small subsystems equilibrate to near a recently predicted non-Abelian thermal state.

  We offer an interferometric procedure for phase parameters estimation at the Heisenberg (up to 1/N) and super-Heisenberg scaling levels. The heart of our setup is the novel soliton Josephson Junction (SJJ) system providing the formation of the quantum probe. We illustrate that such states are close to the optimal ones even with moderate losses.
