New directions in the pursuit of Majorana fermions in solid state systems
J Alicea - Reports on progress in physics, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org
The 1937 theoretical discovery of Majorana fermions—whose defining property is that they
are their own anti-particles—has since impacted diverse problems ranging from neutrino …
