Recent studies of the electronic properties of graphite have produced conflicting results regarding the positions of the different carrier types within the Brillouin zone, and the possible presence of Dirac fermions. In this paper we report a comprehensive study of the de Haas-van Alphen, Shubnikov-de Haas and Hall effects in a sample of highly orientated pyrolytic graphite, at temperatures in the range 30 mK to 4 K and magnetic fields up to 12 T. The transport measurements confirm the Brillouin-zone locations of the different carrier types assigned by Schroeder et al.: electrons are at the K-point, and holes are near the H-points. We extract the cyclotron mass and scattering time for both carrier types from the temperature- and magnetic-field-dependences of the magneto-oscillations. Our results indicate that the holes experience stronger scattering and hence have a lower mobility than the electrons. We utilise phase-frequency analysis and intercept analysis of the 1/B positions of magneto-oscillation extrema to identify the nature of the carriers in graphite, whether they are Dirac or normal (Schrodinger) fermions. These analyses indicate normal holes and electrons of indeterminate nature.

Based on the recently proposed concept of effective gauge potential and magnetic field for photons, we numerically demonstrate a photonic de Haas-van Alphen effect. We show that in a dynamically modulated photonic resonator lattice exhibiting an effe
ct magnetic field, the trajectories of the light beam at a given frequency have the same shape as the constant energy contour for the photonic band structure of the lattice in the absence of the effective magnetic field.
We report the magneto-transport properties of CaAl$_4$ single crystals with $C2/m$ structure at low temperature. CaAl$_4$ exhibits large unsaturated magnetoresistance $sim$3000$%$ at 2.5 K and 14 T. The nonlinear Hall resistivity is observed, which i
ndicates the multi-band feature. The first-principles calculations show the electron-hole compensation and the complex Fermi surface in CaAl$_4$, to which the two-band model with over-simplified carrier mobility cant completely apply. Evident quantum oscillations have been observed with B//c and B//ab configurations, from which the nontrivial Berry phase is extracted by the multi-band Lifshitz-Kosevich formula fitting. An electron-type quasi-2D Fermi surface is found by the angle-dependent Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations, de Haas-van Alphen oscillations and the first-principles calculations. The calculations also elucidate that CaAl$_4$ owns a Dirac nodal line type band structure around the $Gamma$ point in the $Z$-$Gamma$-$L$ plane, which is protected by the mirror symmetry as well as the space inversion and time reversal symmetries. Once the spin-orbit coupling is included, the crossed nodal line opens a negligible gap (less than 3 meV). The open-orbit topology is also found in the electron-type Fermi surfaces, which is believed to help enhance the magnetoresistance observed.
The de Haas - van Alphen effect in two-dimensional (2D) metals is investigated at different conditions and with different shapes of Landau levels (LLs). The analytical calculations can be done when many LLs are occupied. We consider the cases of fixe
d particle number ($N=const$), fixed chemical potential ($mu =const$) and the intermediate situation of finite electron reservoir. The last case takes place in organic metals due to quasi-one-dimensional sheets of Fermi surface. We obtained the envelopes of magnetization oscillations in all these cases in the limit of low temperature and Dingle temperature, where the oscillations can not be approximated by few first terms in the harmonic expansion. The results are compared and shown to be substantially different for different shapes of LLs. The simple relation between the shape of LLs and the wave form of magnetization oscillations is found. It allows to obtain the density of states distribution at arbitrary magnetic field and spin-splitting using the measurement of the magnetization curve. The analytical formula for the magnetization at $mu =const$ and the Lorentzian shape of LLs at arbitrary temperature, Dingle temperature and spin splitting is obtained and used to examine the possibility of the diamagnetic phase transition in 2D metals.
The layered ternary compound TaIrTe$_4$ has been predicted to be a type-II Weyl semimetal with only four Weyl points just above the Fermi energy. Performing magnetotransport measurements on this material we find that the resistivity does not saturate
for fields up to 70 T and follows a $ rho sim B^{1.5}$ dependence. Angular-dependent de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) measurements reveal four distinct frequencies. Analyzing these magnetic quantum oscillations by use of density functional theory (DFT) calculations we establish that in TaIrTe$_4$ the Weyl points are located merely $sim$ 40-50 meV above the chemical potential, suggesting that the chemical potential can be tuned into the four Weyl nodes by moderate chemistry or external pressure, maximizing their chiral effects on electronic and magnetotransport properties.
We report observations of quantum oscillations in single crystals of the high temperature superconductor MgB_2. Three de Haas-van Alphen frequencies are clearly resolved. Comparison with band structure calculations strongly suggests that two of these
come from a single warped Fermi surface tube along the c direction, and that the third arises from cylindrical sections of an in-plane honeycomb network. The measured values of the effective mass range from 0.44-0.68 m_e. By comparing these with band masses calculated recently by three groups, we find that the electron-phonon coupling strength lambda, is a factor ~3 larger for the c-axis tube orbits than for the in-plane network orbit, in accord with recent microscopic calculations.
