Chiral charge transfer along magnetic field lines in a Weyl superconductor

Abstract

We identify a signature of chirality in the electrical conduction along magnetic vortices in a Weyl superconductor: The conductance depends on whether the magnetic field is parallel or antiparallel to the vector in the Brillouin zone that separates Weyl points of opposite chirality.
