When the junction couples topological superconductors, no phase flip is expected. We investigate this and related effects in a full-shell hybrid interferometer, using gate voltage to control dot-junction parity and axial magnetic flux to control the transition from trivial to topological superconductivity. Enhanced zero-bias conductance and critical current for odd parity in the topological phase reflects hybridization of the confined spin with zero-energy modes in the leads.}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/quantum-dot-parity-effects-in-trivial-and-topological-josephson-junctions/}, pages = {116803}, journal = {Physical Review Letters}, volume = {125}, number = {11}, }
