Fractionalized quasiparticles-anyons-bear a special role in present-day physics. At the same time, they display properties of interest both foundational, with quantum numbers that transcend the spin-statistics laws, and applied, providing a cornerstone for decoherence-free quantum computation. The development of platforms for realization and manipulation of these objects, however, remains a challenge. Typically these entail the zero-temperature ground state of incompressible, gapped fluids. Here we establish a strikingly different approach: The development and probing of anyon physics in a gapless fluid. The platform of choice is a chiral, multichannel, multi-impurity realization of the Kondo effect. We discuss how, in the proper limit, anyons appear at magnetic impurities, protected by an asymptotic decoupling from the fluid and by the emerging Kondo length scale. We discuss possible experimental realization schemes using integer quantum Hall edges. The gapless and charged degrees of freedom that coexist with the anyons suggest the possibility of extracting quantum information data by transport and simple correlation functions. To show that this is the case, we generalize the fusion ansatz of Cardy's boundary conformal field theory, now in the presence of multiple localized perturbations. The generalized fusion ansatz captures the idea that multiple impurities share quantum information nonlocally, in a way formally identical to anyonic zero modes. We display several examples supporting and illustrating this generalization and the extraction of quantum information data out of two-point correlation functions. With the recent advances in mesoscopic realizations of multichannel Kondo devices, our results imply that exotic anyon physics may be closer to reach than presently imagined.
