DESCRIPTION:Prof. Andrew Boothroyd\n\nUniversity of Oxford\nTopological me
 tals and semimetals exhibit exceptional transport behaviour due to the exi
 stence of low energy quasiparticles which resemble relativistic fermions. 
 A particular interest is to identify materials in which the topology of th
 e electrons can be controlled by magnetic order or magnetic fields. In thi
 s talk\, I will give a general introduction to the field of topological el
 ectronic bands and then discuss how magnetic structures can couple to elec
 tronic band topology\, drawing examples from very recent studies on severa
 l intermetallic compounds\, including candidates for Weyl semimetals and a
 xion insulators. I especially wish to highlight the strengths of scatterin
 g experiments using advanced neutron and synchrotron radiation techniques 
 for probing important aspects of the magnetic structures.\n
