Abstract
We find the admittance of a topological Josephson junction Y(ω,φ0,T) as a function of frequency ω, the static phase bias φ0 applied to the superconducting leads, and temperature T. The dissipative part of Y allows for spectroscopy of the subgap states in the junction. The resonant frequencies ωM,n(φ0) for transitions involving the Majorana (M) doublet exhibit characteristic kinks in the φ0 dependence at φ0=π. The kinks, associated with decoupled Majorana states, remain sharp and the corresponding spectroscopic lines are bright at any temperature, as long as the leads are superconducting. The developed theory may help with regard to extracting quantitative information about Majorana states from microwave spectroscopy.
