Research Abstract

We found the parity-violating curves in a single domain of Sr_2RuO_4 superconductors through electric transport measurements. The results show that the Sr_2RuO_4 itself provides spontaneous magnetization. An applied magnetic field changes the chirality of the single domain. We suggest that the Majorana fermions are excited at the edge of Sr_2RuO_4.
