| Summary: | We apply the recently developed concept of the nucleon energy–energy correlator (NEEC) for the gluon sector to investigate the long-range azimuthal angular correlations in proton–proton collisions at the Large Hadron Collider. The spinning gluon in these collisions will introduce substantial nonzero [Formula: see text] asymmetries in both Higgs boson and top quark pair productions, where [Formula: see text] is the azimuthal angle between the forward and backward energy correlators in the NEEC observables. The genesis of the [Formula: see text] correlation lies in the intricate quantum entanglement. Owing to the substantial [Formula: see text] effect, the NEEC observable in Higgs boson and [Formula: see text] production emerges as a pivotal avenue for delving into quantum entanglement and scrutinizing the Bell inequality at high-energy colliders. |
