Summary: Neutrino oscillations at JUNO provide a unique opportunity to study Sorkin's triple path interference. The research finds that the bounds on triple path interference by neutrinos are comparable to those from electromagnetic probes, but the neutrino probe is more direct and independent of any boundary conditions compared to electromagnetic probes.

Summary: In this study, the observation of quantum contextuality without detection, sharpness, and compatibility loopholes is reported. By adopting a hybrid two-ion system and highly efficient fluorescence measurements, the detection and sharpness loopholes are closed. The compatibility loophole is closed by targeting correlations between two different ions. The experimental results violate the bound for the most adversarial noncontextual models and provide a way to certify quantum systems.

Summary: In this work, the nonlocality of (2(n) - 1)-partite tree-tensor networks used in quantum communications is considered. Bell-type inequalities are derived which are satisfied by all (2(n) - 2)-local correlations and all local correlations, showcasing the maximal quantum violations of these inequalities and their robustness to noise in these tree networks.

Summary: The authors realize a photonic experiment to demonstrate a triangle causal structure, which violates classical predictions without external inputs. The violation of Bell inequalities can only be explained by modeling causal dependencies as intrinsically quantum. There are also other causal structures beyond Bell that can witness nonclassicality, some of which do not require external inputs.

Summary: Non-local correlations in entangled systems can be effectively captured by measures like Bell's inequality violation, but in neutrino systems, the non-local advantage of quantum coherence (NAQC) is found to be a stronger measure. The effects of non standard interaction (NSI) on these measures, including Bell's inequality violation and NAQC, have been analyzed for various experimental setups, showing differences in sensitivity to NSI between the two measures.

Summary: This paper addresses the issue of nonidealities in experimental devices affecting single-particle entanglement experiments by quantitatively analyzing the behavior of realistic devices in photon SPE experiments. The analysis allows for a semi-device-independent randomness certification of realistic quantum random-number generators based on SPE states of photons. Additionally, the paper proposes an unbiased estimator for quantum transition probabilities based on experimental data.

Summary: In this experiment, conducted using a sophisticated single-photon experimental setup, we comprehensively addressed the crucial loopholes in macrorealism experiments and successfully demonstrated clear violations of the Leggett-Garg inequality (LGI) and Wigner's form of the Leggett-Garg inequality (WLGI). The experimental results are consistent with quantum mechanical predictions and confirm the noninvasiveness of our implemented negative result measurement.

Summary: There exists an entanglement witness for every entangled state where negativity of the expectation value guarantees entanglement, with measurement-device-independent entanglement witnesses introduced to remove imperfections. Through analysis, upper bounds and threshold values can be determined for guaranteeing entanglement in nonideal detector efficiency scenarios.

Summary: We investigate nonlocal quantum correlations arising between multiple two-level impurity atoms coupled to an ultracold bosonic gas. Genuine multipartite nonlocality is observed in a system of three impurities, and non-Markovian effects and the persistence of coherences in the impurity subsystem are crucial for preventing complete loss of nonlocality and allowing for nonlocal correlations to be generated and maintained for extended periods of time.

Summary: The study demonstrates that many-body nonlocality witnessed by a broad family of Bell inequalities is a resource for ultraprecise metrology, allowing for tracking sensitivity growth with extending nonlocality. Near a quantum critical point, rapid sensitivity increase is accompanied by the emergence of many-body Bell nonlocality, providing a systematic study of highly quantum phenomena in complex systems. This work extends the understanding of the beneficial role played by fundamental nonclassical effects in implementations of quantum-enhanced protocols.

Summary: Violation of Bell's inequalities demonstrates a strong conflict between quantum mechanics and local realism. Loophole-free Bell tests not only enhance understanding of quantum mechanics, but also serve as important foundations for device-independent tasks in quantum information. High-dimensional quantum systems have significant advantages over qubits in closing the detection loophole.

Summary: The study reveals that maximizing the correlation measure in the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality for pure and mixed states can be simplified to maximizing the perimeter of a parallelogram enclosed by an ellipse characterized by the entanglement in the bipartite system. This geometrical description is applicable to nonmaximally entangled states, and the corresponding optimal measurements have been identified.

Summary: This paper studies the genuine tripartite nonlocality (GTN) and genuine tripartite entanglement (GTE) of Dirac fields in the background of a Schwarzschild black hole. The results show that Hawking radiation degrades both the physically accessible GTN and GTE, with the former experiencing sudden death at a critical Hawking temperature and the latter approaching a non-zero asymptotic value at infinite Hawking temperature. It is also found that Hawking effect can generate physically inaccessible GTE for fermion fields in curved spacetime, but not physically inaccessible GTN. Additionally, monogamy relations between physically accessible GTE and physically inaccessible GTE are discovered.

Summary: Bell non-locality and KS contextuality are logically independent concepts in quantum theory, but there are one-to-one and partial connections between the two in certain scenarios. The mapping introduced in the work shows how quantum Bell non-local behavior can be transformed into KS contextual behavior, and vice versa, for some situations. This provides insights into the relationships and conversions between these concepts in quantum theory.

Summary: We address the problem of closing the detection efficiency loophole in Bell experiments and propose a general method for reducing the critical detection efficiency of any Bell inequality. This is accomplished by entangling two particles in multiple orthogonal subspaces and conducting multiple Bell tests. The proposed method closes the simultaneous measurement loophole by introducing penalized N-product Bell inequalities.

Summary: We address the lack of robustness in existing examples of contextuality in high-dimensional systems by identifying a family of noncontextuality inequalities whose maximum quantum violation grows with the dimension of the system. We show the practicality of this result by presenting an experimental test of contextuality in a seven-dimensional system, where we report a violation of 68.7 standard deviations. Our findings advance the investigation of high-dimensional contextuality and its role in quantum computation.

Summary: This study addresses the problem of self-testing quantum correlations using tools from graph theory. It is found that the set of quantum correlations, BQ, is strictly contained in a set associated with a graph, 0(G), which is easier to characterize. When the optimum values of BQ and 0(G) coincide, self-testing can be demonstrated by proving self-testability with 0(G). This approach also connects self-testing to open problems in discrete mathematics.

Summary: This article introduces a scheme to address the problem of producing contextual correlations in sequences of measurements on single quantum systems. By encoding quantum information in indistinguishable bosons in multiple modes and performing ideal measurements with auxiliary qubits, the authors were able to realize sequential quantum measurements on high-dimensional quantum systems and generate contextuality that cannot be simulated by classical light.

Summary: The paper discusses two DI-QKD protocols that rely on Bell inequalities with more than two inputs and two outputs. It shows that, for maximally entangled states and perfect visibility, a protocol based on a Bell inequality with three inputs and four outputs requires slightly lower detection efficiency than those based on Bell inequalities with two inputs and two outputs.
