Detecting chiral pairing and topological superfluidity using circular dichroism

Realizing and probing topological superfluids is a key goal for fundamental science, with exciting technological promises. Here, we show that chiral p_{x}+ip_{y} pairing in a two-dimensional topological superfluid can be detected through circular dichroism, namely, as a difference in the excitation...
