## TL;DR

This paper explores how chiral anomalies induce a vortical effect in vortex-skyrmions within superfluids containing Weyl points, revealing parity-violating mass currents driven by spectral flow.

## Contribution

It demonstrates that chiral anomalies cause a vortical effect in vortex-skyrmions, linking spectral flow through Weyl points to macroscopic parity violation.

## Key findings

- Spectral flow through Weyl points drives mass currents in vortex cores.
- Chiral anomaly explains the parity-violating effects in vortex-skyrmions.
- Vortex cores with skyrmion structures exhibit chiral vortical effects.

## Abstract

We discuss the type of the general macroscopic parity-violating effects, when there is the current along the vortex, which is concentrated in the vortex core. We consider vortices in superfluids, which contain the Weyl points. In the vortex core the positions of the Weyl points form the skyrmion structure. We show that the mass current concentrated in such a core is provided by the spectral flow through the Weyl points according to the Adler-Bell-Jackiw equation for chiral anomaly.
