Abstract
We calculate the entanglement between a pair of polarization-entangled photon beams as a function of the reference frame. We show that a Lorentz transformation on a momentum-helicity eigenstate produces a momentum-dependent phase. This phase leads to changes in the reduced polarization density matrix, such that entanglement is not Lorentz invariant.
