| contents | Quantum entanglement (QE), evidenced by Bell inequality (BI) violations, reveals the nonlocality of nature. Fundamental interactions manifest in various forms, each with distinct effects on QE and BI, but have not yet been studied in depth. We investigate in detail the relationship between QE, Bell nonlocality, and parity-violating interactions in spin-1/2 bipartite systems arising from the decays of spin-0 and spin-1 particles within the quantum field theory (QFT). Our findings reveal that parity (P) violation can completely disentangle particle pairs, rendering Bell tests ineffective in distinguishing between classical and quantum theories. In the spin-0 case, complete disentanglement occurs at maximal P violation, which is similarly true for spin-1 decays. Without restrictions from the QFT, the predicted relation between entanglement and the Bell nonlocality may no longer be valid and we propose promising methods for testing it. Additionally, we emphasize the previously overlooked influence of magnetic fields within detectors, which alters predictions for QE and Bell nonlocality. This environmental effect induces spurious P and charge-parity (CP) violations and thus has to be subtracted for genuine P, CP, and Bell tests. |
