Claims

C1strongest claim

our calculations reveal 18 additional pairs of dual-type Weyl points distributed across three distinct planes: type-I in the kz=0 plane and type-II in the kz= ±0.0698 2π/c planes... the position and annihilation of Dirac and Weyl points are tunable by the alloy engineering and external strains.

C2weakest assumption

The first-principles calculations (including the specific kz=0.0698 value and strain thresholds) accurately capture the real electronic structure and topology of CaAgBi without significant errors from the choice of exchange-correlation functional, spin-orbit coupling treatment, or k-point sampling.

C3one line summary

CaAgBi is predicted to be a Dirac-Weyl semimetal with 18 pairs of dual-type Weyl points whose positions and annihilation can be tuned by alloy engineering and external strain.
