Abstract
Using time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we examine the unoccupied electronic structure and electron dynamics of the type-I Weyl semimetal PtBi2. Using the ability to change the probe photon energy over a wide range, we identify the predicted Weyl points in the unoccupied three-dimensional band structure and we discuss the effect of k⊥ broadening in the normally unoccupied states. We characterize the electron dynamics close to the Weyl points and in other parts of three-dimensional Brillouin zone using k-means, an unsupervised machine-learning technique. This reveals distinct differences - in particular, that the electron dynamics close to the Weyl points are slower than in Brillouin zone regions close to the bulk Fermi surface.
