• Authors: Ying Ji, Jialin Zhang and Hongwei Yu
• Abstract summary: We study the entanglement harvesting phenomenon for static detectors locally interacting with massless scalar fields in the cosmic string spacetime. For the alignments on the same side of the string, we find that the presence of a cosmic string may either assist or inhibit entanglement harvesting. The presence of a cosmic string enlarges the harvesting-achievable range for the detectors in vertical alignment only in the vicinity of the string, while it always reduces the harvesting-achievable range for the detectors in parallel alignment.

• Abstract: We study the entanglement harvesting phenomenon for static detectors locally interacting with massless scalar fields in the cosmic string spacetime which is locally flat but with a conical structure characterized by a deficit angle. Specifically, three alignments of the detectors with respect to the string, i.e., parallel and vertical alignments with the detectors on the same side of the string, and vertical alignment with the detectors on two different sides, are examined. For the alignments on the same side of the string, we find that the presence of a cosmic string may either assist or inhibit entanglement harvesting both in the sense of the entanglement harvested and the harvesting-achievable range of interdetector separation depending on the detector-to-string distance, and this is remarkably different from the case of a locally flat spacetime with a reflecting boundary where the boundary always enlarges the harvesting-achievable range. For the alignment with detectors on two different sides of the string, the detectors notably can always harvest more entanglement than those in flat spacetime without a cosmic string, which is in sharp contrast to those on the same side. Interestingly, the presence of a cosmic string enlarges the harvesting-achievable range for the detectors in vertical alignment only in the vicinity of the string, while it always reduces the harvesting-achievable range for the detectors in parallel alignment.

  We identify two biases that detectors may also be prone to overfitting: position bias and content bias. For the position bias, we observe that detectors are prone to lazily depending on the specific positions within an image. As for content bias, we argue that detectors may potentially and mistakenly utilize forgery-unrelated information for detection.

  We consider two comoving two-level detectors at a coincident spatial position. The detectors are individually coupled to a scalar field, which eventually leads to coupling between the two detectors. We compute the logarithmic negativity, quantifying the degree of entanglement generated at late times between the two detectors.

  We propose an interferometric method to probe pair correlations in a gas of spin-1/2 fermions. The method consists of a Ramsey sequence where both spin states of the Fermi gas are set in a superposition of a state at rest and a state with a large recoil velocity. The off-diagonal long-range order is directly reflected in the behavior of the interferometric signal for long interrogation times.

• Harvesting correlations from vacuum quantum fields in the presence of a reflecting boundary [7.888731069560742]
  We study the phenomena of mutual information harvesting and entanglement harvesting for two detector-boundary alignments. The presence of the boundary generally inhibits mutual information harvesting relative to that in flat spacetime without any boundaries. The boundary may play a doubled-edged role in entanglement harvesting, i.e., inhibiting entanglement harvesting in the near zone of the boundary while assisting it in the far zone of the boundary.

• Correlation harvesting between particle detectors in uniform motion [0.0]
  We investigate the correlation harvesting protocol using two Unruh-DeWitt particle detectors moving along four classes of uniformly accelerated trajectories. We find that detectors undergoing linear, catenary, and cusped motions gain fewer correlations in the nonstationary configurations. Remarkably we find that under certain circumstances detectors in both linear and circular states of motion can harvest genuine entanglement even though they are in causal contact.

• Entanglement harvesting of three Unruh-DeWitt detectors [0.0]
  We analyze a tripartite entanglement harvesting protocol with three Unruh-DeWitt detectors. We find that tripartite entanglement can be harvested even if one detector is at larger spacelike separations from the other two. For small detector separations bipartite correlations become larger than tripartite ones, leading to an apparent violation of the Coffman-Kundu-Wootters (CKW) inequality.

• Entanglement amplification between superposed detectors in flat and curved spacetimes [0.0]
  We consider an entanglement harvesting protocol between two Unruh-deWitt detectors in quantum superpositions of static trajectories in the static de Sitter and thermal Minkowski spacetimes. We demonstrate for the first time that the spatial superposition of each detector's path allows entanglement to be harvested from the quantum field in regimes where it would be otherwise impossible for detectors on classical trajectories.

• Entanglement harvesting in the presence of a reflecting boundary [7.030564717893124]
  We study the entanglement harvesting of inertial and uniformly accelerated detectors locally interacting with vacuum massless scalar fields. We find that the presence of the boundary generally degrades the harvested entanglement when two detectors are very close to the boundary. Remarkably, the parameter space of the detectors' separation and the magnitude of acceleration that allows entanglement harvesting to occur is enlarged due to the presence of the boundary.
