![Magnetic order control of topological metals and semimetals](/++theme++dipc-theme/img/event_image_berdea.png)
Topological metals and semimetals exhibit exceptional transport behaviour due
to the existence of low energy quasiparticles which resemble relativistic
fermions. A particular interest is to identify materials in which the topology
of the electrons can be controlled by magnetic order or magnetic fields. In
this talk, I will discuss how magnetic structures can couple to electronic
band topology, drawing examples from very recent studies on several
intermetallic compounds, including candidates for Weyl semimetals and axion
insulators. I especially wish to highlight the strengths of scattering
experiments using advanced synchrotron radiation and neutron techniques for
probing important aspects of the magnetic structures.
