The Majorana fermion, however, doesn’t have a charge, which allows it to be matter and anti-matter at the same time. Yes, that is incredibly confusing, even to quantum physicists, and they’re ...

Majorana fermion is an exotic particle, whose anti-particle is exactly the same with itself. In condensed matter, Majorana fermion exists as a quasi-particle excitation in topological superconductors.

80 years after it was first theorized, researchers have found more evidence for the existence of a fermion that's its own antiparticle. The discovery of Majorana fermions could be the key to ...

Then, in 1937, Italian physicist Ettore Majorana predicted that a single, stable particle could be both matter and antimatter. However, for nearly 80 years, scientists lacked evidence for such ...

Majorana Fermion Majorana fermion is named after Ettore Majorana, the man who, in 1937, had the brilliant idea that somewhere in the fermion family are particles that are also their own antiparticles.

Leo Kouwenhoven is a professor of physics at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands. He ended the 75-year hunt for the Majorana fermion—a particle that is its own antiparticle—by ...

Abstract Majorana fermion is a hypothetical particle that is its own antiparticle. We report transport measurements that suggest the existence of one-dimensional chiral Majorana fermion modes in the ...

Majorana fermion is an exotic particle, whose anti-particle is exactly the same with itself. In condensed matter, Majorana fermion exists as a quasi-particle excitation in topological superconductors.

The Majorana fermion has recently been discovered by physicists. This unusual particle, first predicted in 1937, is its own anti-particle, behaving like both matter and anti-matter.

Scientists at TU Delft’s Kavli Institute and the Foundation for Fundamental Research on Matter (FOM Foundation) have succeeded for the first time in detecting a Majorana particle. In the 1930s, the ...

On Friday, a team of physicists created the first-ever “angel particle” — a chiral Majorana fermion, which represents both matter and antimatter at the same time.
