In twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) a moir\'e pattern forms that introduces a new length scale to the material. At the 'magic' twist angle of 1.1{\deg}, this causes a flat band to form, yielding emergent properties such as correlated…

We consider two high symmetry stackings AA and AB and examine the changes induced in the electronic structure by considering small angles of rotation of 3.48degrees from both these stackings. In both cases we largely recover the low energy…
