We show that a spatially-dependent magnetic field can induce a persistent spin current in a spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic ring, proportional to the solid angle subtended by the magnetic field on a unit sphere. The result is a direct…

Chirality is breaking of mirror symmetry in matter. In the fields of biology and chemistry, this is particularly important because some of the essential molecules in life such as amino acids and DNA have chirality. It is a long-standing…
Within the framework of continuum theory, we draw a parallel between ferromagnetic materials and nematic liquid crystals confined on curved surfaces, which are both characterized by local interaction and anchoring potentials. We show that…
Suppose that viscous fluid is contained in the space between a fixed sphere $S_2$ and an interior sphere $S_1$ which moves with time-periodic velocity ${\bf U}(t)$ and angular velocity ${\bf \Omega}(t)$, with $ \left<{\bf U}(t)\right> =…
The chiral magnetic effect (CME) -- a macroscopic manifestation of the quantum chiral anomaly -- induces currents along magnetic field lines, facilitating mutual conversion between chiral asymmetry and magnetic helicity. Although the finite…
In Weyl semimetals subjected to torsion, there are two different kinds of chirality: i) the (coordinate-space) shape of the twisted crystal is chiral, and ii) the momentum space contains chiral quasi-particles. Here we construct a general…
We show that a vortex current is created around a skyrmion spin texture under magnetic field due to a radial spin motive force in a two-dimensional metal with localized magnetic moments even in the absence of any superconductivity…
