Abstract We study the evolution of quantum correlations in a lepton-antineutrino pair, as produced weak interactions (e.g. pion decay). Assuming an inital state entangled spins two particles, we show that both chiral and flavor (neutrino) oscillations affect spin correlations. Such corrections are relevant non-relativistic regime. In second part focused our attention on process n + ν e → p which results found previous sections could be observed.
