Anomalous Transport from Effective Field Theory (opens in new tab)

A systematic study of chiral effects is presented using an Effective Field Theory framework. By integrating out a massive Dirac fermion at finite temperature in presence of vector and axial background fields, the currents and their anomalies are computed from the path-integral. Chiral effects previously considered separately naturally arise in a unified computation, including new mass corrections. The link between each anomalous transport effe...
