Chiral Anomaly Trapped in Weyl Metals: Nonequilibrium Valley Polarization at Zero Magnetic Field

Posted by klaurent Delft

Kavli Affiliate: Anton R. Akhmerov | First 5 Authors: Pablo M. Perez-Piskunow, Nicandro Bovenzi, Anton R. Akhmerov, Maxim Breitkreiz, | Summary: In Weyl semimetals the application of parallel electric and magnetic fields leads to valley polarization — an occupation disbalance of valleys of opposite chirality — a direct consequence of the chiral anomaly. In this […]

Distinct chemistries explain decoupling of slip and wettability in atomically smooth aqueous interfaces

Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: Anthony R. Poggioli, David T. Limmer, , , | Summary: Despite essentially identical crystallography and equilibrium structuring of water, nanoscopic channels composed of hexagonal boron nitride and graphite exhibit an order-of-magnitude difference in fluid slip. We investigate this difference using molecular dynamics simulations, demonstrating that its […]
