Based on $ab$ $initio$ calculations and low-energy effective $k{\cdot}p$ model, we propose a type of Weyl nodal point-line fermion, composed of 0D Weyl points and 1D Weyl nodal line, in ferromagnetic material Eu$_5$Bi$_3$. In the absence of…

The quasi-particle excitations in Weyl semimetals, known as Weyl fermions, are usually forced to emerge in charge-conjugate pairs by the Nielsen--Ninomiya theorem. When the Brillouin zone is non-orientable, this constraint is replaced by a…

Three-dimensional Weyl fermions are found to emerge from simple cubic lattices with staggered fluxes. The mechanism is to gap the quadratic band touching by time-reversal-symmetry-breaking hoppings. The system exhibits rich phase diagrams…
Weyl semimetals typically appear in systems in which either time-reversal (T) or inversion (P}) symmetry are broken. Here we show that in the presence of gauge potentials these topological states of matter can also arise in fermionic…
