A meron is a controversial topological excitation because it carries just one half of the topological charge unit. It is believed that it is tightly binded to another meron and cannot be observed by isolating it. We present a counter…

We demonstrate that in metals, both normal and superconducting, orbital currents present in the ground state when time reversal symmetry (TRS) is broken, generate spin chirality. Nonzero chirality can emerge in the absence of any…
