Transport signatures of bulk topological phases in double Rashba nanowires probed by spin-polarized STM

We study a double-nanowire setup proximity coupled to an s-wave superconductor and search for the bulk signatures of the topological phase transition that can be observed experimentally, for example, with an STM tip. Three bulk quantities, namely, the charge, the spin polarization, and the pairing a...
