Abstract:
We discuss the quantum state structure using the standard model for three colored quarks in the fundamental representations of making up the singlet ground state of the hadrons. This allows us to calculate a finite von Neumann entropy from the quantum reduced density matrix, which we explicitly evaluate for the quarks in a model for the meson and baryon states. Finally we look into the general effects and implications of entanglement in the color space.Note:
