Figure (ottom) is from the tunneling regime of the evie where suffiiently negtive voltge on rrier gte lolly epletes the nonovere nnowire setion, n retes tunnel rrier etween the norml le n the superonutor. In this regime we fin n inue superonuting gp with strong onutne suppression for sugp is. The extrte gp vlue is =.65 mev.

We now turn to the tunneling regime of the evie where Mjorn moes re hrterize y zero is pek.

Converting the B xis into Zeemn energy E z sle (right vertil xis), we fin tht the zero is pek is oun to zero over.75 mev, rnge in Zeemn energy tht is 3 times lrger thn the pek with (the full with t hlf mximum, FWHM µev, see Suppl.

We note tht ll our evies show signifint inrese of sugp ensity of sttes for the mgneti fiels require for topologil phse trnsition.

Orienting the mgneti fiel wy from the wire xis n more towrs B so loses the inue gp n splits the zero is pek (see line uts in )., Vertil line uts from t the ngles inite with olore rs. For ϕ = the zero is pek is present, whih is split for ϕ = 5. norml ontt whih hnges the onutne y more thn ftor of 5 (see lso Suppl. Figure ). Extening the sme nlysis to the nonovere wire setion yiels the sme result (Figure ), i.e., hnging the tunnel rrier onutne y nerly n orer of mgnitue oes not split the zero is pek, nor mkes it ispper (see lso Suppl. Figure e). In ontrst, Figure shows tht the zero is pek is present over finite rnge in voltge pplie to the super gte (line uts in Suppl. Figure f). This inites tht proper tuning of µ is essentil for the pperne of the zero is pek. The oservtion of zero is pek tht oes not split when hnging the tunnel rrier onutne (Figure ) exlues Kono effet 5 n rossing of Anreev levels 6 s the origin of our zero is pek. Most importntly, it rules out n explntion provie y reent theory work emonstrting trivil Anreev levels lolize ner the nonovere wire setion tht re oun to zero energy for vrying E z n µ, ut quikly split to finite energies for vrying tunnel rrier strength. Here we emonstrte for the first time zero is pek rigily oun to V = over hnging tunnel rrier onutne ehvior oserve in ll evies (Suppl. Figure 5-7). From the omine nlysis (Figure -) we onlue tht the zero is pek origintes in the wire setion unerneth the superonutor, onsistent with Mjorn interprettion. In Mjorn nnowire 4,5, the existene of topologil phse stritly requires n externl mgneti fiel with finite omponent perpeniulr to the spin orit fiel B so, see Figure 3. An externl fiel long the wire fulfills this requirement, shown in Figure. In ontrst, Figure 3 shows tht n externl mgneti fiel prllel to B so oes not generte zero is pek for the sme gte settings in Figure. Figure 3 shows the epenene of the zero is pek on the iretion of the externl fiel. The zero is pek is limite to n ngle rnge where the externl fiel is mostly ligne with the wire, perpeniulr to B so (see Suppl. Figure for mesurement in lrger ngle rnge). We oserve low onutne region roun the zero is pek, initing the inue gp. Orienting the mgneti fiel wy from the wire xis n more towrs B so loses the inue gp n splits the zero is pek.

From the oserve gp = 75 µev t B =.575 T n g ftor of 4, we otin ϕ = 5, greeing well with the oserve vlue of ϕ ( reution in ϕ is expete ue to oritl effet of the externl mgneti fiel 3 ). Finlly, in Suppl. Figure we show tht inresing B ereses ϕ, ehvior onsistent with the projetion rule. We now turn our ttention to n ientil evie ut with longer proximitize wire setion (. µm, see Suppl. Figure 3). Figure 4- show n inue gp =.9 mev t zero mgneti fiel, signifintly lrger thn the evie in Figure -3. As result, the inue gp loses t higher mgneti fiel ( T). The zero is pek is visile n unsplit over rnge of t lest.3 T, orresponing to Zeemn energy sle >.5 mev. The FWHM is roun.7 mev yieling rtio ZBP-rnge/FWHM (Suppl. Figure 4). A isorer-free Mjorn theory moel with prmeters extrte from this evie (geometry, inue gp, spin orit oupling, temperture) fins perfet greement etween simultion n our t (Figure 4). Suppl. Figure 3 n shows tht the zero is pek position is roust ginst hnge in onutne when vrying the voltge pplie to the norml n the rrier gte, ruling out the trivil Anreev-level explntion onsistent with our erlier isussion (Figure n ). In ontrst to norml n rrier gte, the voltge pplie to the super gte hnges the onset n the en of the zero is pek in mgneti fiel. Figure 4 shows tht for V s gte = V the zero is pek ppers t higher mgneti fiel ompre to Figure 4 where V s gte = 7 V (.66 T vs.. T). We hve extene this nlysis for V V s gte V n mrke the mgneti fiel vlues t whih the zero is pek strts n ens (Suppl. Figure 3). The resulting phse igrm is shown in Figure 4e. For lrge negtive voltges pplie to the super gte, we fin region in whih the zero is pek persists for lrge rnges of mgneti fiel n V s gte, initing the topologil phse. We ttriute the pperne of trivil phse t lrge mgneti fiels ove the topologil phse to multi-hnnel ouption in the proximitize wire setion,.
