Abstract
We have investigated the classical and quantum correlations of a quantum field in the inflationary universe using a particle detector model. We have found that the entanglement between two comoving detectors becomes zero after their physical separation exceeds the Hubble horizon. We have also found that the quantum discord, which is defined as the quantum part of total correlation, approaches zero on the super horizon scale.
