High-temperature Majorana zero modes

We employ general arguments and numerical simulations to show that unpaired Majorana zero modes can occur in cores of Abrikosov vortices at the interface between a three-dimensional topological insulator, such as Bi$_2$Se$_3$, and a twisted bilayer o...

Neutrinos, a window on new physics

This paper reviews some aspects of the physics of neutrinos, in particular neutrino masses and the issue of Dirac versus Majorana neutrinos. The see-saw mechanism is described and it is argued that the Majorana nature of neutrinos can be tested by me...

Majorana sweet spots in 3-site Kitaev chains

Minimal Kitaev chains, composed of two quantum dots (QDs) connected via a superconductor, have emerged as an attractive platform to realize Majorana bound states (MBSs). These excitations exist when the ground state is degenerate. The additional requ...

Majorana Thermoelectrics and Refrigeration

A two-terminal quantum spin-Hall heat engine and refrigerator with embedded Majorana bound states (MBS) is analyzed for optimality in thermoelectric performance using the Landaeur-Buttiker approach. This investigation can be an effective tool to dete...

Majorana Qubits

Contribution to the 44th IFF Spring School held at the Forschungszentrum Jülich in 2013 on "Quantum Information Processing". The notes include a pedagogic (but incomplete) introduction to Majorana fermions; especially paying attention to the usefuln...

Charge transfer statistics of transport through Majorana bound states

We analyse the full counting statistics of charge transfer through a Majorana bound state coupled to an STM tip and show how they can be used for an unambiguous identification of the bound state at the end of the wire. Additionally, we show how to ge...

Phenomenological Consequences of Singlet Neutrinos

In this paper, we study the phenomenology of right-handed neutrino isosinglets. We consider the general situation where the neutrino masses are not necessarily given by $m_D^2/M$, where $m_D$ and $M$ are the Dirac and Majorana mass terms respective...
