From: Zero-energy pinning from interactions in Majorana nanowires
a Proximitized Rashba nanowire of length L with gate-tunable Fermi energy μ and under a parallel Zeeman field V Z . b Bound charges ρ b arise in the dielectric surroundings, which interact with free charges ρ in the nanowire. c Sketch of the interaction-induced pinning, discussed in this work, of Majoranas at zero energy around parity crossings. This pinning provides a natural explanation to hitherto unresolved experimental features in Majorana wires (see, e. g., Fig. 3c in ref. 7)
