We report detailed magneto-transport measurements on single crystals of the magnetic Weyl semi-metal Co$_{3}$Sn$_{2}$S$_{2}$. Recently a large anomalous Hall effect and chiral anomaly have been observed in this material which have been suggested to be related to the large Berry curvature between the Weyl points (Liu et al., Nature Physics (2018).). Another effect expected to result from the topological band structure of magnetic Weyl materials is the planar Hall effect (PHE). In this work we report observation of this intrinsic effect in single crystals of Co$_{3}$Sn$_{2}$S$_{2}$. Crucially, the PHE is observed for temperature $T leq 74$~K which is much smaller than the ferromagnetic ordering temperature $T_c = 175$~K@. Together with the large anomalous Hall conductivity, this further demonstrates the Topological character of Co$_3$Sn$_2$S$_2$.

The rotating magnetocaloric effect (RMCE) is a recent interest in magnetic refrigeration technique in which the cooling effect is attained by rotating the anisotropic magnetocaloric material from one orientation to the other in a fixed magnetic field . In this work, we report the anisotropic magnetocaloric properties of single crystals of the ferromagnetic Weyl semimetal Co$_{3}$Sn$_{2}$S$_{2}$ for magnetic field $Hparallel c$ axis and $Hparallel ab$ plane. We observed a significant (factor of $2$) difference between the magnetocaloric effect measured in both orientations. The rotating magnetocaloric effect has been extracted by taking the difference of the magnetic entropy change ($Delta S_{M}$) for fields applied in the two crystallographic orientations. In a scaling analysis of $Delta S_{M}$, the rescaled $Delta S_{M}(T,H)$ vs reduced temperature $theta$ curves collapse onto a single universal curve, indicating that the transition from paramagnetic to ferromagnetic phase at 174~K is a second order transition. Furthermore, using the power law dependence of $Delta S_{M}$ and relative cooling power RCP, the critical exponents $beta$ and $gamma$ are calculated, which are consistent with the recent critical behavior study on this compound cite{Yan2018}.
We report a comprehensive neutron scattering study on the spin excitations in the magnetic Weyl semimetal Co$_3$Sn$_2$S$_2$ with quasi-two-dimensional structure. Both in-plane and out-of-plane dispersions of the spin waves are revealed in the ferroma gnetic state, similarly dispersive but damped spin excitations persist into the paramagnetic state. The effective exchange interactions have been estimated by a semi-classical Heisenberg model to consistently reproduce the experimental $T_C$ and spin stiffness. However, a full spin wave gap below $E_g=2.3$ meV is observed at $T=4$ K, much larger than the estimated magnetic anisotropy energy ($sim0.6$ meV), while its temperature dependence indicates a significant contribution from the Weyl fermions. These results suggest that Co$_3$Sn$_2$S$_2$ is a three-dimensional correlated system with large spin stiffness, and the low-energy spin dynamics could interplay with the topological electron states.
We report experimental observation of the Planar Hall effect (PHE) in a type-II Dirac semimetal PtTe$_2$. This unusual Hall effect is not expected in nonmagnetc materials such as PtTe$_2$, and has been observed previously mostly in magnetic semicondu ctors or metals. Remarkably, the PHE in PtTe$_2$ can be observed up to temperatures near room temperature which indicates the robustness of the effect. This is in contrast to the chiral anomaly induced negative longitudnal magnetoresistance (LMR), which can be observed only in the low temperature regime and is sensitive to extrinsic effects, such as current jetting and chemical inhomogeneities in crystals of high mobility. Planar Hall effect on the other hand is a purely intrinsic effect generated by the Berry curvature in Weyl semimetals. Additionally, the PHE is observed for PtTe$_2$ even though the Dirac node is $approx 0.8$~eV away from the Fermi level. Thus our results strongly indicate that PHE can be used as a crucial transport diagnostic for topological character even for band structures with Dirac nodes slightly away from the Fermi energy.
Mn$_{3}$Sn is a non-collinear antiferromagnet which displays a large anomalous Hall effect at room temperature. It is believed that the principal contribution to its anomalous Hall conductivity comes from Berry curvature. Moreover, dc transport and p hotoemission experiments have confirmed that Mn$_{3}$Sn may be an example of a time-reversal symmetry breaking Weyl semimetal. Due to a small, but finite moment in the room temperature inverse triangular spin structure, which allows control of the Hall current with external field, this material has garnered much interest for next generation memory devices and THz spintronics applications. In this work, we report a THz range study of oriented Mn$_{3}$Sn thin films as a function of temperature. At low frequencies we found the optical conductivity can be well described by a single Drude oscillator. The plasma frequency is strongly suppressed in a temperature dependent fashion as one enters the 260 K helical phase. This may be associated with partial gapping of the Fermi surfaces that comes from breaking translational symmetry along the c-axis. The scattering rate shows quadratic temperature dependence below 200 K, highlighting the possible important role of interactions in this compound.
We study the anomalous Hall Effect (AHE) of single-crystalline Co$_3$Sn$_{2-x}$In$_x$S$_2$ over a large range of indium concentration x from 0 to 1. Their magnetization reduces progressively with increasing x while their ground state evolves from a f erromagnetic Weyl semimetal into a nonmagnetic insulator. Remarkably, after systematically scaling the AHE, we find that their intrinsic anomalous Hall conductivity (AHC) features an unexpected maximum at around x = 0.15. The change of the intrinsic AHC corresponds with the doping evolution of Berry curvature and the maximum arises from the magnetic topological nodal-ring gap. Our experimental results show a larger AHC in a fundamental nodal-ring gap than that of Weyl nodes.
