In their (3+1)-dimensional realizations in condensed matter systems, i.e., the so-called Weyl semimetals, this anomaly gives rise to topological electromagnetic response of magnetic fluctuations, which takes the form of non-local interaction between magnetic fluctuations and electromagnetic fields. We study the physical consequences of this non-local interaction, including electric field assisted magnetization dynamics, an extra gapless magnon dispersion, and polariton behaviors that feature \"sibling\" bands in small magnetic fields.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-05-02T20:00:14.000Z", "journal": null, "doi": null }, { "version": "v2", "updated": "2014-10-16T10:11:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "71.36.+c", "03.65.Vf", "75.50.Pp", "71.90.+q" ], "keywords": [ "weyl fermions induced magnon electrodynamics", "weyl semimetal", "magnetic fluctuations", "electric field assisted magnetization dynamics", "non-local interaction" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "year": 2014, "month": "Oct", "volume": 90, "number": 13, "pages": 134409 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1294218, "adsabs": "2014PhRvB..90m4409H" } } }
