SUMMARY:Topological Superconductivity and the Braiding of Majorana Zer
 o Modes in Magnet-Superconductor Hybrid Systems\, R. G. Herb Condensed
  Matter Seminar\, Dirk Morr\, UIC
DESCRIPTION:Magnet-Superconductor Hybrid (MSH) systems have proven to 
 be versatile platforms for the engineering of topological superconduct
 ivity and the ensuing Majorana zero modes\, an important step towards 
 the realization of topological quantum computing. In particular\, the 
 experimental ability to create MSH system with widely varying magnetic
  structures -- from ferromagnetic and skyrmion-like to antiferromagnet
 ic – has provided an unprecedented opportunity to manipulate and exp
 lore topological phases.
\n
\nIn this talk\, I will review some recent
  progress in the theoretical prediction and experimental realization o
 f novel topological superconducting phases – ranging from topologica
 l nodal-point superconductivity to higher order topological supercondu
 ctors -- in MSH systems. Moreover\, I will discuss how the real-time m
 anipulation of the magnetic structure in MSH systems provides a new pa
 th to braiding MZMs\, revealing their non-Abelian statistics\, and to 
 the creation of topological quantum gates.
