We use the effective g factor of Andreev subgap states in an axial magnetic field to investigate how the superconducting density of states is distributed between the semiconductor core and the superconducting shell in hybrid nanowires. We find a steplike reduction of the Andreev g factor and an improved hard gap with reduced carrier density in the nanowire, controlled by gate voltage. These observations are relevant for Majorana devices, which require tunable carrier density and a g factor exceeding that of the parent superconductor. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
