Upper-branch thermal Hall effect in quantum paramagnets

Inspired by the persistent thermal Hall effects at finite temperatures in various quantum paramagnets, we explore the origin of the thermal Hall effects from the perspective of the upper branch parts by invoking dispersive and twisted crystal field excitations. It is shown that the upper branches of...
