Abstract
The entanglement of pure states of the [Formula: see text]-, [Formula: see text]- and [Formula: see text]-shell nucleon pairs has been studied. The von Neumann entropy of the partial density matrix has been employed to quantify the entanglement of the [Formula: see text]-, [Formula: see text]- and [Formula: see text]-shell nucleon pairs. The Slater decomposition theorem has been used to verify if any pure state of a nucleon pair is an entangled state. Results of calculations have evidenced that a dominant part of the isospin [Formula: see text] proton–neutron states of the [Formula: see text]-, [Formula: see text]- and [Formula: see text]-shell nucleon pairs, respectively, are strongly entangled. It is shown that the calculated data are a source of valuable information on the spin quantum numbers of the entangled protons from two-proton decay.
