Spin skyrmion gaps as signatures of strong-coupling insulators in magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene

Abstract The flat electronic bands in magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (MATBG) host a variety of correlated insulating ground states, many of which are predicted to support charged excitations with topologically non-trivial spin and/or valley skyrmion textures. However, it has remained challengi...
