Skyrmion control of Majorana states in planar Josephson junctions

Majorana fermions are elusive particles which have proven extremely tricky to observe experimentally, with current efforts focused on hybrid superconducting devices. Here, the authors theoretically propose a set up combining a Josephson junction and a skyrmion crystal to create and control the Major...
