Environmental Memory Effects and Quantum Resource Hierarchies in Polarized Hyperon--Antihyperon Systems
Abstract
Hyperon--antihyperon pairs produced in e+e-→ J/ψ→ YY (Y=Λ,Σ+,Ξ-,Ξ0) constitute a unique high-energy platform for probing quantum correlations through experimentally accessible spin observables. We investigate the impact of correlated dephasing environments on the stationary and dynamical properties of logarithmic negativity, geometric quantum discord, and l1-norm quantum coherence under both longitudinal and transverse beam polarizations. Our analysis reveals that environmental memory plays a crucial role in preserving quantum resources. In the non-Markovian regime, information backflow generates recurrent revivals of quantum correlations and significantly delays decoherence, whereas Markovian evolution drives the system toward asymptotic stationary states through an irreversible loss of quantum information. The influence of beam polarization is found to be strongly channel dependent and can substantially enhance the amount of accessible quantum correlations. A comparative investigation of different quantifiers uncovers a clear hierarchy of quantum resources. Quantum coherence remains robust over the widest parameter range, geometric quantum discord survives even in regions where entanglement is strongly reduced, while logarithmic negativity is the most sensitive to environmental degradation. This hierarchy persists for all considered hyperon channels and under both polarization configurations. The dependence of quantum resources on the production angle, azimuthal angle, polarization degree, and memory parameter is examined using experimental inputs from BESIII. The predicted effects are found to be compatible with the precision expected at BESIII and future high-luminosity facilities such as STCF and CEPC.
