Chiral Anomaly as the Origin of the Planar Hall Effect in Weyl Semimetals
Chiral Anomaly as the Origin of the Planar Hall Effect in Weyl Semimetals
In condensed matter physics, the term "chiral anomaly" implies the violation of the separate number conservation laws of Weyl fermions of different chiralities in the presence of parallel electric and magnetic fields. One effect of the chiral anomaly in the recently discovered Dirac and Weyl semimetals is a positive longitudinal …
