Non-equilibrium 8π Josephson effect in atomic Kitaev wires

Detecting Majorana quasi-particles requires unambiguous and experimentally accessible fingerprints. Here, the authors demonstrate the existence of a 8π-periodic fractional Josephson effect in a Kitaev wire as a signature for Majorana quasi-particles, and propose a cold atom experiment for its detect...
