We investigate the quantum entanglement in a system of two moving atoms interacting with a
single mode field. An analytical solution for this system is obtained when both atoms are
initially in the excited state and the field is in a coherent state. We study the effects of atomic
motion and other parameters on the entanglement of the system and different bipartite
partitions of the system (field–two atoms, atom–(field+atom)) through the tangles. The effect
of atomic motion on the amount of entanglement between atoms and the field is also evaluated
through the negativity. The results show that atomic motion leads to the periodic death and
anabiosis of the entanglement between two moving atoms, and the time of the death and the
amplitude of the anabiosis of the entanglement between two moving atoms depend on the
coupling constant of two moving atoms and the parameter of the mode field.
