• Abstract summary: entanglement is a central ingredient in our understanding of quantum many-body systems and an essential resource for quantum technologies. We devise a method to extract the quantum Fisher information (QFI) from non-Hermitian operators and formulate an entanglement witness for resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) We find that entanglement is challenging to detect under standard conditions, but that it could be achieved by analyzing the outgoing x-ray polarization or via specific choices of momentum and energy.

• Abstract: Although entanglement is both a central ingredient in our understanding of quantum many-body systems and an essential resource for quantum technologies, we only have a limited ability to quantify entanglement in real quantum materials. Thus far, entanglement metrology in quantum materials has been limited to measurements involving Hermitian operators, such as the detection of spin entanglement using inelastic neutron scattering. Here, we devise a method to extract the quantum Fisher information (QFI) from non-Hermitian operators and formulate an entanglement witness for resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS). Our approach is then applied to the model iridate dimer system Ba$_3$CeIr$_2$O$_9$ and used to directly test for entanglement of the electronic orbitals between neighboring Ir sites. We find that entanglement is challenging to detect under standard conditions, but that it could be achieved by analyzing the outgoing x-ray polarization or via specific choices of momentum and energy. Our protocol provides a new handle for entanglement detection, which offers routes to related types of entanglement witness (such as orbitally-resolved measurements) and to the generalization to out-of-equilibrium settings accessed in ultrafast settings.
