On Nanoscale views, Doug Natelson has an excellent post Exotic (quasi)particles, and why experimental physics is challenging.
He points out recent theoretical work showing that a zero-bias peak in the I-V characteristic seen in recent experiments is not conclusive evidence for Majorana particles.

I welcome discussion on this point. I don't think it is as sensitive or as important a topic as the author order on papers. With rega...
