The article explores the detection of non-standard forms of magnetism with chiral electronic ordering, which are difficult to observe experimentally. The authors develop a theory for symmetry-broken chiral ground states and propose a methodology based on circularly polarized, spin-selective, angular-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (CP-spin-ARPES) to study these states. Using the quantum material Sr2RuO4 as a model, they reveal spectroscopic signatures that, despite being subtle, can be reconciled with the formation of spin-orbital chiral currents at the surface of the material. The findings provide a deeper understanding of ordering phenomena and unconventional magnetism. The study highlights the importance of combining circular dichroism and spin-selective photoemission to investigate the relationship between crystal symmetries, electron correlations, and electronic structure in unconventional phases of matter.The article explores the detection of non-standard forms of magnetism with chiral electronic ordering, which are difficult to observe experimentally.
