From my understanding two particles' quantum states being entangled is what leads to the capacity to determine a property when the other entangled element is measured. I'm looking into exactly which properties of subatomic particles can be entangled. Can all properties of the particles be entangled.

    $\begingroup$ The question, as asked, is too broad to properly answer. There probably hundreds of various observables that have been demonstrated to show entanglement. Many are combined in experiments. It’s not really possible to provide a checklist. There is no specific restriction on entangled properties. Is there something more specific you are seeking? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @DrChinese Hi I'm basically trying to understand if there are limitations to what properties of a subatomic particle can be entangled. $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 28 at 20:27
  • $\begingroup$ Properties are not entangled. States are entangled. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Take any two particles with state spaces of more than one dimension. Take any observable for the first particle with (at least) two distinct eigenvalues, corresponding to eigenvectors U and V. Let E and F be any linearly independent states for the second particle. Then UE+DF is entangled in the sense you probably intend. $\endgroup$
