| contents | We study the quantum entanglement at the colliders which is independent of the spin-analyzing powers. Taking $Λ(\to pπ^-)\barΛ(\to \bar{p}π^+)$ as an example, we investigate whether quantum entanglement in fermion pairs produced at colliders can be certified by using only angular information from final-state decays, while remaining independent of the parity-violating decay parameters $α_Λ$ and $α_{\barΛ}$. Building on a general decomposition of any angular observable in terms of Wigner d-functions, we show that the expectation value must take the form $\mathcal{O}_0+\mathcal{O}_1α_Λ+\mathcal{O}_2α_{\barΛ}+\mathcal{O}_3α_Λα_{\barΛ}$, with coefficients $\mathcal{O}_i$ ($i=0,1,2,3$) linear in the spin-density matrix elements $α_{k,j}α^*_{m,n}$. We obtain the value ranges of observables over the general and separable spaces of $α_{k,j}$, and demonstrate a sufficient entanglement condition for pure states, extending it to mixed states by convexity. In constructing an $α_Λ$- and $α_{\barΛ}$-independent witness from angular observables alone, we find that there are obstacles to probe quantum entanglement via the inequality-type and ratio-type ways. Finally, we present the successful constructions with additional spin information: for the process of $e^+e^-\to J/Ψ\to Λ\barΛ$ at $e^+ e^-$ collider, independent spin information provided by beam-axis selection enables the construction of normalized observables $f_i~(i=1,2)$ that are insensitive to $α_Λ$ and $α_{\barΛ}$; if their measured values lie in $\left[-1,-\tfrac{1}{2}\right)\cup\left(\tfrac{1}{2},1\right]$, entanglement is certified, irrespective of purity or mixedness. |
