Half-quantum vortices on c-axis domain walls in chiral p-wave superconductors

Half-quantum vortices on c-axis domain walls in chiral p-wave superconductors

Chiral superconductors are two-fold degenerate and domains of opposite chirality can form, separated by domain walls. There are indications of such domain formation in the quasi two-dimensional putative chiral p-wave superconductor Sr _2 RuO _4 , yet no experiment has explicitly resolved individual...
