Anomalous transport properties of Dirac and Weyl semimetals

In this review we discuss a wide range of topological properties of electron quasiparticles in Dirac and Weyl semimetals. Their nontrivial topology is quantified by a monopole-like Berry curvature in the vicinity of Weyl nodes, as well as by the energy and momentum space separations between the node...

description In this review we discuss a wide range of topological properties of electron quasiparticles in Dirac and Weyl semimetals.
