Chiral excitonic instability of two-dimensional tilted Dirac cones

The Coulomb interaction among massless chiral particles harbors unusual emergent phenomena in solids beyond the conventional realm of correlated electron physics. An example of such an effect is excitonic condensation of interacting massless Dirac fermions, which drives spontaneous mass acquisition...
