The chiral topological semimetal CoSi has a rich electronic structure in which unconventional chiral fermions and long surface Fermi arcs are observed near the Fermi level [1]. We studied the bulk electronic structure in CoSi using soft X-ray angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) experiments via the ASPHERE endstation at PETRA III (DESY, Hamburg). We investigated the orbital character of the electronic states using circular dichroism in ARPES. Our results reveal the effect of the chiral crystal symmetry on the orbital structure in momentum space, and provide evidence of orbital-momentum locking as recently theoretically predicted [2]. This chirality-driven orbital texture with an accompanying large orbital Hall effect [2] paves the way towards applications of topological semimetals in spin- and orbitronics.
