• Abstract summary: We provide the full picture of quantum correlations in top quarks by studying also quantum discord and steering. quantum discord in a separable quantum state is expected to be detected with high-statistical significance. In contrast to entanglement, the asymmetric nature of quantum discord and steering can provide witnesses of $CP$-violating physics beyond the Standard Model.

• Abstract: Top quarks have been recently shown to be a promising system to study quantum information at the highest-energy scale available. The current lines of research mostly discuss topics such as entanglement, Bell nonlocality or quantum tomography. Here, we provide the full picture of quantum correlations in top quarks by studying also quantum discord and steering. We find that both phenomena are present at the LHC. In particular, quantum discord in a separable quantum state is expected to be detected with high-statistical significance. Interestingly, due to the singular nature of the measurement process, quantum discord can be measured following its original definition, and the steering ellipsoid can be experimentally reconstructed, both highly-demanding measurements in conventional setups. In contrast to entanglement, the asymmetric nature of quantum discord and steering can provide witnesses of $CP$-violating physics beyond the Standard Model.

  We explore the applicability of quantum-data learning to practical problems in high-energy physics. We make use of ansatz based on quantum convolutional neural networks and numerically show that it is capable of recognizing quantum phases of ground states. The observation of non-trivial learning properties demonstrated in these benchmarks will motivate further exploration of the quantum-data learning architecture in high-energy physics.

• Simple Tests of Quantumness Also Certify Qubits [69.96668065491183]
  A test of quantumness is a protocol that allows a classical verifier to certify (only) that a prover is not classical. We show that tests of quantumness that follow a certain template, which captures recent proposals such as (Kalai et al., 2022) can in fact do much more. Namely, the same protocols can be used for certifying a qubit, a building-block that stands at the heart of applications such as certifiable randomness and classical delegation of quantum computation.

  In interferometry, quantum physics is used to enhance measurement precision. An alternative approach is quantum metrology jump [L. A. Clark et al., Phys A 99, 022102] which deduces information by continuously monitoring an open quantum system. It is shown that the proposed approach can exceed the standard quantum limit without the need for complex quantum states being scalable.

  We use a 219-atom programmable quantum simulator to probe quantum spin liquid states. In our approach, arrays of atoms are placed on the links of a kagome lattice and evolution under Rydberg blockade creates frustrated quantum states. The onset of a quantum spin liquid phase of the paradigmatic toric code type is detected by evaluating topological string operators.

  We show how to predict and experimentally observe the emergence of random state ensembles naturally under time-independent Hamiltonian dynamics. The observed random ensembles emerge from projective measurements and are intimately linked to universal correlations built up between subsystems of a larger quantum system. Our work has implications for understanding randomness in quantum dynamics, and enables applications of this concept in a wider context.

• Entanglement and quantum tomography with top quarks at the LHC [0.0]
  Entanglement is a central subject in quantum mechanics. We propose the detection of entanglement between the spins of top-antitop-quark pairs at the LHC. We show that entanglement can be observed by direct measurement of the angular separation between the leptons arising from the decay of the top-antitop pair.

  We report on experimental tests of topological defect formation via the one-dimensional transverse-field Ising model. We find that the quantum simulator results can indeed be explained by the KZM for open-system quantum dynamics with phase-flip errors. This implies that the theoretical predictions of the generalized KZM theory, which assumes isolation from the environment, applies beyond its original scope to an open system.
