Emergent Weyl excitations in systems of polar particles

Systems with Weyl excitations can display very interesting physical phenomena. Here the authors demonstrate that Weyl excitations exist generically in 3D systems of dipolar particles following angular momentum transfer, and discuss how to observe them in cold alkaline-earth-atom systems.
