 +Check out my rough draft here. The content I will present will be almost identical but with ever so slightly more pictures and less words. This version of the abstract has what I originally envisioned my project being, then I spent waaaay too much time trying to understand all of the derivations for what is a vast, vast topic that has like 75 years of prolific works behind it. 
 +These are my favorite links that will do a much better job covering this material than I ever could

 +I'm currently traveling back to the US and can't post my rough draft right now. (I will post it as soon as I can). But to start people off, here are some things to read.

 +This book is a great resource you can find it online through the OSU library. I don't suggest reading it all, but it's a great resource for specific topics.

 +Check out the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Majorana_fermion|Wikipedia article on Majorana Fermions]] for a general introduction to the topic. (JT - the Wiki article refers to a paper from just 3 weeks ago, claiming to have detected MFs in a superconductor [[http://www.nature.com/nmat/journal/vaop/ncurrent/full/nmat4604.html]].)
 +
 +In particular, we would be interested in Majorana Fermions as they exist in solid state superconductivity.  Read [[http://arxiv.org/pdf/1206.1736v2.pdf|this paper]] for a nice introduction.
