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

Probing the chiral anomaly with nonlocal transport in Weyl semimetals
Sid Parameswaran, Tarun Grover, D.A. Abanin, D.A. Pesin, and Ashvin Vishwanath

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

I thank Sid for describing these results to me.
