Description
A quantized Hall effect that is observed at a Landau filling of nu=5/2 is believed to be well explained by the Moore-Read Pfaffian state, whose excitations obey non-abelian statistics. In this work, carried out with Eytan Grosfeld, we study electronic transport at a Landau filling that slightly deviates from nu=5/2, with the goal of proposing experimentally accessible signatures of the non-abelian nature of the excitations.
