Dynamics of a two-dimensional quantum spin liquid: signatures of emergent majorana fermions and fluxes

<p style="text-align:justify;"> We provide a complete and exact theoretical study of the dynamical structure factor of a two-dimensional quantum spin liquid in gapless and gapped phases, as realized in Kitaev’s honeycomb model. We show that there are direct signatures—qualitative an...
