Can topological order survive continuous monitoring and dissipation in a system where particle number isn’t conserved. Measurements on a superconducting Rashba nanowire reveal the disconnected entanglement entropy, a marker of topological stability, persists for a duration scaling linearly with the system size, despite boundary dissipation affecting Majorana modes. This extends previous observations from systems with particle conservation to a more complex, open quantum system.
