Levitons in helical liquids with Rashba spin-orbit coupling probed by a superconducting contact

We consider transport properties of a single edge of a two-dimensional topological insulator, in presence of Rashba spin-orbit coupling, driven by two external time-dependent voltages and connected to a thin superconductor. We focus on the case of a train of Lorentzian-shaped pulses, which are known...
