The pith
A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.
The reading
What carries the argument
The key machinery is the momentum-space scalar spin chirality matrix chi-hat_k, whose expectation value in magnon band eigenstates is weighted by the Bose distribution function. Under time reversal the magnon Hamiltonian transforms as h_k -> h*_{-k}, while the chirality matrix obeys chi-hat_k = -chi-hat*_{-k}, so in a time-reversal-symmetric system the chirality profile is odd in momentum and the Brillouin-zone sum vanishes. The DMI breaks this symmetry and introduces an even component near the band bottom; the analytic results follow from expanding the lowest-band eigenstate and the chirality profile near the Gamma point and integrating the thermal factor with $k^{4}$ (Kagome) or $k^{6}$ (honeycomb) weight.
What would settle it
Compute the scalar spin chirality in the same spin model including the next-order 1/S Holstein-Primakoff corrections; if the correction is comparable in magnitude to the quadratic result, or changes its sign, at temperatures where Eqs. (12) and (23) predict chirality about 0.01, the quantitative claim collapses. Alternatively, measure the temperature dependence of the chirality via the topological Hall effect in Cu(1,3-bdc) below 1 K and look for the predicted $T^{3}$ scaling; its absence would falsify the mechanism.
Extended reading notes
Core claim
The central discovery is that collinear ferromagnets with DMI acquire a nonzero thermal expectation value of the scalar spin chirality, chi_eq, at finite temperatures. In the Kagome case, the paper finds chi_eq approximately equal to minus $\sqrt$(3) D_z divided by (9 pi $\sqrt$($J^{2}$ + $D_z^{2}$) S), times exp(-$\beta$(2KS + g mu_B H)) over ($\beta$ J S)^3, while in the honeycomb case the leading term is $\sqrt$(3) D_z over (pi J S) times exp(-$\beta$(2KS + g mu_B H)) over ($\beta$ J S)^4. Both expressions show the chirality is proportional to the perpendicular DMI component D_z and increases with temperature; numerically, using material parameters for Cu(1,3-bdc) and CrBr3, the predicted chirality reaches values on the order of 0.1, comparable to the chirality of noncoplanar Kagome antiferromagnets with canting angles around one degree.
Load-bearing premise
The calculation treats magnons as non-interacting by cutting the spin-wave expansion at quadratic order in the Holstein-Primakoff bosons, so the results stand or fall on magnon-magnon interactions being negligible in the temperature range where the chirality becomes sizable.
Editorial extensions
If this is right
- Collinear ferromagnets with DMI should exhibit a measurable scalar spin chirality at low temperatures, with magnitude comparable to noncoplanar magnets, making them candidate platforms for chirality-driven phenomena.
- The chirality follows distinct power laws in temperature, T^3 for Kagome and T^4 for honeycomb, which provides a sharp experimental signature.
- The result implies that collinear spin systems can host chirality-induced transport, such as a topological Hall effect for conduction electrons or a phonon thermal Hall effect via skew scattering.
- Candidate materials include the Kagome ferromagnet Cu(1,3-bdc) and honeycomb ferromagnets such as CrBr3, CrI3, CrSiTe3, and CrGeTe3.
- The DMI is strictly necessary: in its absence the chirality vanishes exactly, so the effect is tied to broken time-reversal symmetry in the magnon sector.
Reading between the lines
- A general principle suggested by this work is that any collinear magnet whose magnon Hamiltonian has a Berry curvature and broken time-reversal symmetry should also exhibit thermal scalar spin chirality, linking the magnon thermal Hall effect to a spontaneous chiral spin texture in momentum space.
- A testable extension is to measure the temperature dependence of the topological Hall contribution in collinear ferromagnets and check whether it follows the predicted T^3 or T^4 scaling rather than the exponential activation alone.
- The quadratic Holstein-Primakoff truncation likely sets the limit of validity; including 1/S corrections at higher temperatures may shift the magnitude, and comparing such a calculation with the analytic formula would delineate where the effect is robust.

A structured set of objections, weighed in public.
Referee Report
Summary. The paper studies two-dimensional ferromagnets on the kagome and honeycomb lattices described by a Heisenberg Hamiltonian with easy-axis anisotropy, out-of-plane Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions, and an applied magnetic field. It argues that although the classical ground state is collinear and the zero-temperature scalar spin chirality vanishes, thermally excited magnons in the DMI-broken magnon Hamiltonian generate a finite SSC at finite temperatures. Using a Holstein-Primakoff expansion truncated at quadratic order, the authors derive analytic low-temperature formulas for the SSC in the kagome case, Eq. (12), and in the honeycomb case, Eq. (23), and support them with numerical band-structure and SSC-profile calculations. They then use material parameters for Cu(1,3-bdc) and CrBr3 to claim that the induced SSC can be comparable in magnitude to the SSC of non-coplanar kagome antiferromagnets.
Significance. If the result is correct, the paper establishes a simple and potentially general mechanism for finite-temperature scalar spin chirality in collinear magnets, with consequences for electron and phonon transport. The symmetry argument is robust: without DMI the chirality profile is odd in momentum and the thermal sum vanishes, while DMI breaks the effective time-reversal symmetry of the magnon Hamiltonian and gives a nonzero result. The low-temperature analytic derivations in Appendix A are transparent, and the numerical and analytic results agree in the appropriate low-temperature regime (Figs. 3(b) and 5(b)). The predictions are falsifiable: the SSC scales linearly with D_z, vanishes with the exponential of the anisotropy/field gap, and follows T^3 (kagome) and T^4 (honeycomb) power laws. The main weakness is that the quantitative comparison to non-coplanar kagome antiferromagnets is made in a temperature regime where the quadratic Holstein-Primakoff truncation has no controlled error estimate.
major comments (2)
- [Sec. II C and Abstract] The claim that the magnon-induced SSC is comparable to that of non-coplanar kagome antiferromagnets (χKAFM ~ 0.045) rests on evaluating Eq. (12) at T around 4–5 K for the Cu(1,3-bdc) parameters. At these temperatures the results lie outside the dilute-magnon regime: with S = 1/2 and k_B T ~ 0.3–0.4 meV comparable to J = 0.6 meV, the thermal magnon density is of order 0.3 per site, so the quadratic Holstein-Primakoff truncation in Eq. (4) has no small parameter. The paper provides no estimate of 1/S or magnon-magnon interaction corrections. I therefore do not consider the quantitative comparability claim to be established, although the qualitative mechanism is sound. Please add a controlled estimate of the corrections, for example a next-order 1/S calculation or a classical Monte Carlo benchmark at these temperatures, or soften the headline claim.
- [Appendix A, Eqs. (12) and (23), Figs. 3(b) and 5(b)] The derivations replace polylogarithms by their leading exponential: Li3(e^{-βΔ}) ≈ e^{-βΔ} and similarly for Li4. This requires β(2KS + gμB H) ≫ 1. For the kagome parameters used in Fig. 3(b), K = 0 and H = 0.05 T give a gap of only about 0.07 K, so over the plotted range 0.1–1 K the argument of the polylogarithm is not small; the approximation has an estimated error of 10–20%. The same concern applies to Eq. (23) for CrBr3, where the gap 2KS is also small on the temperature scale of Fig. 5(b). The analytic comparison should either use the exact polylogarithm expression, or the stated agreement should be restricted to temperatures where the exponential approximation is controlled, or the validity condition in the text should be revised accordingly.
minor comments (3)
- [Sec. II C and Sec. III C, Figs. 2 and 4] The text says that in Fig. 2(b) and Fig. 4(b) the SSC profile is an odd function of k; the panels showing SSC profiles are actually Fig. 2(c)/(d) and Fig. 4(c)/(d), while Fig. 2(b) and Fig. 4(b) show band structures with DMI. Please correct the panel references.
- [Appendix A] There are small typographical errors in Appendix A: 'focucing' should be 'focusing' and 'Brilluin zone' should be 'Brillouin zone'.
- [Sec. II B, Eq. (10)] The text states k_BT ⪅ 2KS + gμB H as the low-temperature limit for Eq. (12); for the parameters of Fig. 3 this inequality is satisfied only below about 0.1 K, so the stated regime should be made consistent with the polylogarithm approximation discussed above.
Circularity Check
No significant circularity: the SSC is derived from the stated spin Hamiltonian with fixed parameters, and the sole self-citation is to a formalism that the paper re-derives explicitly.
full rationale
The derivation chain is self-contained. The model Hamiltonian (1) defines the spin system; the Holstein-Primakoff expansions in Eqs. (4) and (16) produce the magnon Hamiltonians from the same fixed inputs J, K, D, and H, which are either material parameters or model parameters and are never fitted to the target SSC. The SSC expectation values in Eqs. (10)-(11) and (21)-(22) are the standard thermal averages of the explicitly written bilinear SSC operators in Eqs. (8)-(9) and (19)-(20). The analytic expressions, Eqs. (12) and (23), are derived in Appendix A by explicit low-energy expansion of the same magnon Hamiltonian and are validated against numerical diagonalization; they are not imposed or fitted to the SSC data. The comparison to non-coplanar Kagome antiferromagnets uses the external canting-angle benchmark from Ref. [35], not an input to the calculation. The only self-citation, Ref. [33], is used to motivate formulating SSC in the magnon eigenbasis; because the SSC matrices and thermal-averaging formulas are fully written out in this paper, that citation is not load-bearing. No predicted quantity enters the definition or fitting of any model parameter, and no uniqueness theorem or prior same-author result is invoked to force the outcome. The quadratic Holstein-Primakoff truncation is a stated approximation rather than a circular step.

The scalar spin chirality (SSC), defined as a triple product of spins, is essential for describing noncoplanar spin structures and understanding chiral physics in magnetic systems. Traditionally, SSC has been discussed primarily in the context of noncoplanar ground-state spin configurations at zero temperature, as collinear spin systems are generally thought to lack SSC. Consequently, whether the SSC can emerge at finite temperatures in spin systems with collinear ground states remains an open question and has yet to be fully understood. In this study, we theoretically demonstrate that thermally excited magnons can induce SSC even in collinear spin systems. By considering 2D ferromagnets on Kagome and honeycomb lattices, we demonstrate that the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions (DMI) which break the effective time-reversal symmetry in the magnon Hamiltonian can lead to finite SSC at finite temperatures. Using a simple spin model, we show both numerically and analytically that the SSC increases with the magnitude of DMI and temperature. Furthermore, calculations based on realistic material parameters reveal that the magnon-induced SSC can achieve a magnitude comparable to those observed in non-coplanar spin configurations. These findings suggest that SSC plays a significant role even in collinear spin systems, providing new insights into the chiral physics of magnetic materials.
