The structure of domain walls is of interest to the antiferromagnetic spintronics. Here the authors find an additional contribution to the Hall conductivity tensor and a transverse magnetization generated by domain walls in Mn3Sn and report that the sign of this contribution depends on the prior history of the sample.
