- Abstract: Ultrastrong coupling between matter and cavity vacuum fields can turn the electromagnetic vacuum into a structured quantum environment, thereby opening passive routes for modifying and manipulating material properties. Recent work has identified light--matter entanglement as an important ingredient in these property changes, which raises the question of where the relevant vacuum correlations actually reside. Landau polaritons provide chiral ultrastrong coupling systems in which one circular cavity polarization forms the bright polariton branches. Here, using a quantum information approach, we show that an exact chiral charge in a multimode Hopfield model routes the dominant anomalous correlations, squeezing, and cavity--matter entanglement into the opposite polarization. We find that, using parameters extracted from a multimode Landau polariton system, this hidden sector correlates the cyclotron resonance with finite momentum magnetoplasmons through Gaussian discord, while pairwise matter--matter entanglement remains absent. We further predict a polarization anisotropy of dressed vacuum electric field fluctuations as a signature of this chiral routing. These results identify chirality as a symmetry principle for organizing ultrastrong coupling vacua and show that quantum information tools provide a powerful framework for revealing the salient properties of Landau polaritons.
