Title

Magnetic structure of magnetic Weyl semimetal Co3Sn2S2

Abstract

One of the major themes in solid-state physics is the realization of exotic types of relativistic electrons which travel at speeds much slower than the speed of light. These electrons live in crystals with very specific structural properties. One such material is the magnetic Weyl semi-metal, which forms through a very specific type of magnetic order. The presence of Weyl electrons in Co3Sn2S2 is indicated by experiments that probe the electronic structure, but up to now there is no definitive confirmation that the necessary type of magnetic order is present. We shall use the D10 and D3 diffractometers to investigate the magnetic properties of Co3Sn2S2. We aim to establish conclusively whether or not Co3Sn2S2 is a Weyl semi-metal.
