Majorana Fermions in Solid State Systems
Speaker(s): Liang Fu
Abstract: A Majorana fermion is a particle that is its own antiparticle. It has been studied in high energy physics for decades, but has not been definitely observed. In condensed matter physics, Majorana fermions appear as low energy fractionalized quasi-particles with non-Abelian statistics and inherent non... read more
