## TL;DR

This paper predicts a new type of quantum oscillations in the chiral magnetic conductivity of 3D chiral materials under strong magnetic fields, dominated by the chiral magnetic effect and differing in phase from conventional oscillations.

## Contribution

It introduces the concept of quantum CME oscillations, highlighting their dominance over SdH oscillations in certain chiral materials at high magnetic fields.

## Key findings

- Quantum CME oscillations predicted to dominate over SdH oscillations.
- Phase difference of π/2 between CME and SdH oscillations.
- Oscillations arise from the chiral magnetic effect in strong magnetic fields.

## Abstract

In strong magnetic field the longitudinal magnetoconductivity in 3D chiral materials is shown to exhibit a new type of quantum oscillations arising from the chiral magnetic effect (CME). These quantum CME oscillations are predicted to dominate over the Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) ones in chiral materials with an approximately conserved chirality of quasiparticles at strong magnetic fields. The phase of quantum CME oscillations differs from the phase of the conventional SdH oscillations by $\pi/2$.
