Berry phase and anomalous velocity of Weyl fermions and Maxwell photons

Berry phase and anomalous velocity of Weyl fermions and Maxwell photons

We consider two systems of wave equations whose wave packet solutions have trajectories that are altered by the “anomalous velocity” effect of a Berry curvature. The first is the matrix Weyl equation describing cyclotron motion of a charged massless fermion. The second is Maxwell equations for the whispering-gallery modes of …
