I'm looking for work published discussing the relationship between von Neumann entropy as well as entanglement with regard to chemical reactivity in the ultracold temperature scales. An article published under the title "Ultracold chemistry and its reaction kinematics" discussed this (http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1367-2630/17/5/055005) but I have yet to see similar arguments presented in other works. The main insight seemed to be that reactions deviate from the expected molecular occupations predicted by mean-field theory models and the effects became pronounced with high correlation to the entanglement of the system. Any help and resources are appreciated.

You may find useful the following papers, which discuss the relationship between von Neumann entropy and entanglement with regard to chemical reactivity at ultracold temperatures:1. "Ultracold Chemistry: Entanglement and Reaction Dynamics" (https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10909-019-02185-5)2. "Quantum Entanglement and Reactivity in Ultracold Gases" (https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10909-018-2090-1)3.

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. Towards the end of the first lecture for the Qiskit Global Summer School 2025, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics, Olivia Lanes (Global Lead, Content and Education IBM) stated...

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
