| contents | The orbital dynamics of magnons have recently drawn interest due to their potential roles in thermal and orbital transport phenomena in magnetic insulators. In this study, we investigate the orbital magnetic moment (OMM) and orbital angular momentum (OAM) of magnons in a Kagome antiferromagnet with negative vector chirality, focusing on the distinction between thermodynamic and wave-packet-based definitions. We compute the Berry curvature, the OMM, and the OAM in momentum space under an external magnetic field. Our results reveal a quantitative difference between the OMM and OAM, yet their associated Nernst coefficients exhibit similar temperature and field dependence in transport. Our results provide a quantitative comparison between the thermodynamic and wave-packet formulations of magnon orbital dynamics. |
