dc.description.abstractEntanglement is an intrinsic property of quantum mechanics and is predicted to be exhibited in the particles produced at the Large Hadron Collider. A measurement of the extent of entanglement in top quark-antiquark (t (t) over bar) events produced in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV is performed with the data recorded by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC in 2016, and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.3 fb(-1). The events are selected based on the presence of two leptons with opposite charges and high transverse momentum. An entanglement-sensitive observable D is derived from the top quark spin-dependent parts of the t (t) over bar production density matrix and measured in the region of the t (t) over bar production threshold. Values of D < -1/3 are evidence of entanglement and D is observed (expected) to be -0.480(-0.029)(+0.026) (-0.467(-0.029)(+0.026)) at the parton level. With an observed significance of 5.1 standard deviations with respect to the non-entangled hypothesis, this provides observation of quantum mechanical entanglement within t (t) over bar pairs in this phase space. This measurement provides a new probe of quantum mechanics at the highest energies ever produced.
