The entanglement dynamics of a two-qutrit system under decoherence from a spin environment is investigated by using negativityas entanglement measure. Our results imply that the entanglement evolution depends not only on the coupling strength and thetunneling elements of the environment but also on the number of the freedom degrees and the initial state of the environment.
In this paper,we have investigated the effect of Calogero-Moser type interaction on the quantum discord of thermal states of a spin chain.Our results imply that the quantum discord depends on the relative distance between the spins,the external magnetic field,and the temperature.By a comparison between the quantum discord and the entanglement of formation,the quantum discord is more robust than the entanglement of formation in the sense that the latter takes a zero value in a large range of the parameters,while the former takes a nonzero value.
