AI Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the magneto conductivities in Weyl semimetals (WSMs) under small electric and magnetic fields, using quasi-classical Boltzmann transport equations.
- It focuses on the effects of circularly polarized light on a specific type of WSM that breaks time-reversal symmetry, exploring how the chiral anomaly impacts both longitudinal magnetoconductivity and planar Hall conductivity.
- The findings show that the orientation and strength of the fields can create varying magneto-transport behaviors, including both positive and negative magnetoconductances, which can be adjusted in real-time for experimental validation.
Article Abstract
Magneto conductivities in Weyl semimetals (WSMs) in presence of small fields are studied using quasi-classical Boltzmann transport equations. Following such formalism here we consider irradiation via circularly polarized light on a two-node time reversal breaking WSM already under a dc/static electric field and study the magneto-transport properties due to the presence of chiral anomaly. Chiral anomaly affects both longitudinal magnetoconductivity as well as planar Hall conductivity. As our field set-up causes continuous time variation in the relative orientation between the fields, one naturally expects interesting magneto-transport behavior for different field strengths and tilting. The type-I tilting that we study here displays both positive and negative magnetoconductances depending on the field strengths and time. Furthermore, we find that a direct temporal tuning of the irradiated field strengths can lead to fluctuating magneto-transport behavior which can be easily improvised and checked in the laboratories.

Chirality - a characteristic handedness that distinguishes 'left' from 'right'-is a fundamental property of quantum particles under broken symmetry intimately connected to their spins. Chiral fermions have been identified in Weyl semimetals through their unique electrodynamics arising from 'axial' charge imbalance between pairs of chiral Weyl nodes-the topologically protected 'relativistic' crossings of electronic bands. Chiral magnetotransport phenomena critically depend on the details of electronic band structure.

The increased detection of the recreational drug 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) in aquatic ecosystems, has raised concern worldwide about its possible negative impacts on wildlife. MDMA is produced as racemate but its enantioselective effects on non-target organisms are poorly understood. Therefore, this study aimed to provide a comprehensive study of the toxicity of MDMA and its enantiomers in the early life stages of zebrafish (Danio rerio).

Bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate (BMP) is an abundant lysosomal phospholipid required for degradation of lipids, particularly gangliosides. Alterations in BMP levels are associated with neurodegenerative diseases. Unlike typical glycerophospholipids, lysosomal BMP has two chiral glycerol carbons in the S (rather than the R) stereo-conformation, protecting it from lysosomal degradation.

The study of topological band insulators has revealed fascinating phases characterized by band topology indices and anomalous boundary modes protected by global symmetries. In strongly correlated systems, where the traditional notion of electronic bands becomes obsolete, it has been established that topological insulator phases persist as stable phases, separate from the trivial insulators. However, due to the inability to express the ground states of such systems as Slater determinants, the formulation of generic variational wave functions for numerical simulations is highly desirable.
