Relativistic entanglement in muon decay

TL;DR

This paper explores how relativistic effects influence quantum entanglement during muon decay, revealing an anomaly in the muon g factor consistent with experimental measurements.

Contribution

It demonstrates the impact of relativistic entanglement on muon decay processes and explains the observed g factor anomaly through angular momentum conservation.

Findings

Entanglement affects muon decay outcomes.

Relativistic effects explain the g factor anomaly.

Results align with Brookhaven and Fermilab data.

Abstract

We discuss the time evolution of quantum entanglement in presence of non-collapsing interactions. In particular, the entanglement between the products of a muon decay in a magnetic field is revisited. It results from angular momentum conservation and leads to an anomaly in the measured muon g factor in precise agreement with that reported by the Brookhaven and Fermilab experiments.
