Entanglement of Dirac fields in an expanding spacetime

ORAL

Abstract

We study the entanglement generated between Dirac field modes in a d-dimensional Robertson-Walker expanding universe. In the two-dimensional case, we compare the bosonic and fermionic entanglement generated by the expansion of the Universe. We find qualitative differences, in particular, we show that the entanglement generated between fermionic field modes is considerably lower than the bosonic case. This result, together with previous investigations on entanglement in non-inertial frames, suggest that entanglement between fermionic modes is less affected by the underlying space-time.
