Popis: Existence of distinctive correlation between the thermal conductance and the Josephson current across a 1-D topological Josephson junction (T-JJ) is established and an expression connecting the two is derived in the short junction limit. It is shown that the three terminal T-JJ provides us with an ideal set-up for exploiting the distinctive correlations which aid in identifying hallmarks of Majorana bound state localized at the junction. Our approach combines information form sub-gap Cooper pair transport and transport of above-gap thermally excited quasiparticle which is complementary to the existing studies.
