In recent years, the thermal Hall effect has emerged as a powerful tool for probing topological phenomena of magnetic systems. At low temperatures, the thermal Hall transport of long-range ordered magnets can be described in the framework of linear spin-wave theory (LSWT). However, how to treat regimes with increased thermal fluctuations or non-linearities beyond LSWT is an outstanding question. Therefore, within this project, we developed a novel numerical technique to extract the thermal Hall transport properties, which intrinsically includes non-linear effects. In particular, we use semi-classical spin dynamics simulations to compute topological thermal edge currents in the Kitaev honeycomb model on a cylinder geometry. The results are expected to shed new light on the topological thermal transport in Kitaev spin liquid candidate materials.
