= Majorana zero mode at a mass domain wall
{c}

Two counterpropagating Majorana fields coupled by a real <mass> $m(x)$ bind a <Majorana zero mode> when $m$ changes sign. Its envelope is proportional to $\exp[-\int^x m(s)ds/(\hbar v)]$ up to orientation conventions, so a constant asymptotic <mass> gives localization <length> $\hbar v/|m|$.
