Description

The photon-photon polarization entanglement in the two-photon decay of metastable ionic states has been analyzed in the framework of the density matrix and second-order perturbation theory. Emphasis is placed especially upon the relativistic and non-dipole effects along the hydrogen- and helium-isoelectronic sequence.
