• Abstract: The influence of relativistic motion on quantum entanglement is commonly attributed to acceleration-induced thermal noise. Here we show that, for asymmetric multipartite states, the topology of entanglement can become equally important. Considering a three-qubit Star state in the Unruh-DeWitt detector framework, we compare two inequivalent acceleration configurations in which either the central or a peripheral qubit undergoes uniform acceleration. We demonstrate that these physically equivalent accelerations lead to qualitatively different entanglement dynamics: acceleration of a peripheral qubit induces a revival of one-tangle that is absent when the central qubit accelerates, whereas genuine tripartite entanglement decays monotonically but with markedly different robustness. Our results uncover a topology-dependent mechanism for relativistic entanglement degradation, showing that the response of multipartite quantum correlations is determined jointly by Unruh thermalization and the structural role of the accelerated subsystem. This work identifies asymmetric quantum networks as a distinct platform for controlling relativistic quantum resources.

  We show how access to weaker dephasing mechanisms can be obtained for optically active qubits by performing two-photon coincidence measurements. We focus on the typically dominant deformation-potential coupling to longitudinal acoustic phonons. Surprisingly, the impact of the strongly coupled phonon environment is weak and leads to long-lived coherences.
