Title:
Magnetotransport in Weyl and Dirac Metals

Speaker:
Gustavo Monteiro

Abstract:
Dirac (Weyl) metals are characterized by the linear dispersion of electron quasiparticles, with the Dirac (Weyl) point hidden inside a Fermi surface. In this talk, I will refer to the so-called chiral kinetic theory to describe within the same framework both the negative magnetoresistance caused by the chiral magnetic effect (CME) and quantum oscillations in the magnetoresistance (SdH effect) due to the existence of the Fermi surface in these materials. I will also discuss the relevance of obtained results to recent measurements on TaP and Cd_3As_2.
