We investigate the detection of quartets in hybrid multiterminal Josephson junctions [1]. Using simple models of quantum dots coupled to superconducting leads, we find that quartets are ubiquitous and show how to rigorously extract their contribution to the current-phase relation (CPR). We also demonstrate that quartets are closely related to the hybridization of Andreev bound states (ABSs) in these systems and propose a method to identify quartets directly in ABS spectra. We illustrate our method by analyzing the spectroscopic measurements of the ABS spectrum in a threeterminal Josephson junction realized in an InAs/Al heterostructure [2]. Our analysis strongly suggests the existence of quartets in the studied hybrid system.
