Topological thermal Hall effect of magnetic monopoles in the pyrochlore U(1) spin liquid

“Magnetic monopole” is an exotic quantum excitation in three-dimensional U(1) spin liquid, and its emergence is purely of quantum origin and has no classical analog. We predict topological thermal Hall effect (TTHE) of “magnetic monopoles” and present this prediction through non-Kramers doublets on...
