The exotic braiding of anyons is certainly the most tantalizing aspect of fractional quantum Hall states. Although braiding is usually thought as a two-dimensional adiabatic manipulation, the braiding phase can also be captured in one…

The quantum Hall states at filling factors $\nu=5/2$ and $7/2$ are expected to have Abelian charge $e/2$ quasiparticles and non-Abelian charge $e/4$ quasiparticles. The non-Abelian statistics of the latter has been predicted to display a…
