In this study, we demonstrate that the appearance of subgap states in such structures is actually governed by the junction region in tunneling spectroscopy measurements and not the full-shell nanowire itself. Short tunneling regions never show subgap states, whereas longer junctions always do. This can be understood in terms of quantum dots forming in the junction and hosting Andreev levels in the Yu-Shiba-Rusinov regime. The intricate magnetic field dependence of the Andreev levels, through both the Zeeman and Little-Parks effects, may result in robust zero-bias peaks—features that could be easily misinterpreted as originating from Majorana zero modes but are unrelated to topological superconductivity."}],"volume":373,"date_created":"2020-12-02T10:51:52Z","publication_status":"published","publication":"Science","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"_id":"8910","scopus_import":"1","oa":1,"intvolume":"       373","citation":{"apa":"Valentini, M., Peñaranda, F., Hofmann, A.
