contents We investigate direct CP violation in neutral meson decays by reconstructing the associated density matrices and measuring their difference using the trace distance. Our results cover neutral kaon decays into two scalar triplets of isospin space, specifically the pions, and decays of $B$- and $D$- mesons into two scalar octets of SU(3) flavor space. We briefly discuss the quantum properties of these states, including entanglement, contextuality, and nonlocality. Additionally, we demonstrate a comparable approach for spin-1 final states by employing a density matrix describing states in the space of helicities. The significance of CP violation obtained through this method is consistently comparable, and often surpasses that obtained using only single, or combinations of, asymmetries.
