LaTe$_3$ is a noncentrosymmetric (NC) material with time reversal (TR) symmetry in which the charge density wave (CDW) is hosted by the Te bilayers. Here, we show that LaTe$_3$ hosts a Kramers nodal line (KNL), a twofold degenerate nodal…

Recently, chiral anomaly (CA) has been proposed to occur in spin-orbit coupled noncentrosymmetric metals (SOC-NCMs), motivating CA to be a Fermi surface property rather than a Weyl node property. Although the nature of the anomaly is…
