Abstract

We consider electron topological transitions associated with certain points of band-contact lines in metals. These transitions are $$3\frac{1}{2}$$ kind according to the classification of Lifshits and are widespread in metals with inversion symmetry and a weak spin–orbit interaction. The $$3\frac{1}{2}$$ -order transitions can be detected with the magnetic susceptibility. As an example, we consider these transitions in graphite.
