Abstract
In the present paper, we explore the possible effects of a second rank antisymmetric tensor field, known as Kalb–Ramond (KR) field, on cosmological particle production as well as on quantum entanglement for a massive scalar field propagating in a four dimensional FRW spacetime evolves through a symmetric bounce. For this purpose, the scalar field is considered to be coupled with the KR field and also with the Ricci scalar via the term ∼ξRΦ2 (with ξ be the coupling). The presence of KR field spoils the conformal symmetry of a massless scalar field even for ξ = 1/6 in four dimensional context, which has interesting consequences on particle production and consequently on quantum entanglement as we will discuss. In particular, the presence of KR field in an FRW bouncing Universe allows a greater particle production and consequently the upper bound of the entanglement entropy becomes larger in comparison to the case when the KR field is absent. This may provide an interesting testbed for the existence of Kalb–Ramond field in our Universe.
