abstract

We discuss the connection between the integer moments of the Fermi distribution function that occur in the Sommerfeld expansion and the coefficients that occur in anomalous conservation laws for chiral fermions. As an illustration we extract the chiral magneto-thermal energy current from the mixed gauge-gravity anomaly in the 3+1 dimensional energy-momentum conservation law. We then use a similar method to confirm the conjecture that the $T^2/12$ thermal contribution to the chiral vortical effect (CVE) current arises from the gravitational Pontryagin term in the 3+1-dimensional chiral anomaly

Anomaly Realization in Charge-Flux Detector Correlators

hep-ph · 2026-07-07 · conditional · novelty 7.0

Axial anomalies realize in flux detectors as massless-limit collapse of angular distributions onto beam-collinear deltas while preserving the integrated anomaly sum rule, with the same mechanism for zilch and mixed gravitational channels.

Weyl anomaly induced transport in hydrodynamics

hep-th · 2026-04-26 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

The Weyl anomaly induces a new non-dissipative current in accelerated fluids that fixes the electromagnetic-acceleration coupling at second order in hydrodynamics.

Anomalous Transport from Effective Field Theory

hep-th · 2026-05-15 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Unified computation of chiral anomalous transport effects including mass corrections from integrating out a Dirac fermion in EFT at finite temperature, showing physical currents differ from Chern-Simons terms.
