Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the behavior of the quantum coherence for bipartite fermionic systems in noninertial frames beyond the single-mode approximation. It is shown a redistribution of coherence between particle and antiparticle modes, and the behavior in terms of coherence for fermionic systems is convergent in the infinite acceleration limit. We demonstrate that the physical accessible coherence is not always destroyed with the increase in acceleration, which is different from the features of entanglement in the accelerated frame. Besides, we obtain a quantitative relationship about the redistribution of coherence via the \(l_1\)-norm measure. It is worth mentioning that a rotation operation can change the coherence values, since the amount of coherence is related to the selection of reference basis.
