Fermion condensation around a Coulomb impurity in a Weyl semimetal and
in a narrow band gap semiconductor as manifestations of the Landau
zero-charge problem    [PDF]

Eugene B. Kolomeisky, Joseph P. Straley

A Coulomb impurity placed in an undoped Weyl semimetal spontaneously surrounds itself with a cloud of condensed Weyl fermions. We find that the ground-state of this system exhibits an experimentally accessible Landau zero-charge effect: the fermion condensate completely screens out the impurity charge. In a narrow band gap semiconducor this effect manifests itself in the near universality of observable charge of a highly-charged recombination center.
