Extracting quasiparticle dispersion from photoemission data is challenging and often results in confusion when investigating low-energy excitations. As a solution the authors demonstrate a technique, which applies Bayesian analysis to extract the quasiparticle dynamics of a topological insulator from angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) data, and could be applied to other quantum materials.
