Another distinct experimental signature of the chiral anomaly

Previously I posted how a negative classical magnetoresistance with an unusual angular dependence would provide a "smoking gun" for the chiral anomaly.

Another one is described

The figure below nicely describes the proposed experimental setup and signature.

I thank Sid for describing these results to me.

The two-state model for spin crossover in organometallics

Previously, I discussed how spin-crossover is a misnomer for organometallic compounds and proposed that an effective Hamiltonian to describe...
