Chirality flip of Weyl nodes and its manifestation in strained MoTe_{2}
Due to their topological charge, or chirality, the Weyl cones present in topological semimetals are considered robust against arbitrary perturbations. One well-understood exception to this robustness is the pairwise creation or annihilation of Weyl cones, which involves the overlap in energy and mom...
