We have retracted this article because of a possible misinterpretation of our experimental results. Specifically, reported proton signals may be due to spurious harmonics of carbon-13 nuclei. A detailed description is given in the external page retraction note and in the follow-up article by external page Loretz et al., PRX 5, 021009 (2015).
