We propose theoretically (Phys. Rev. Lett. 125, 146401 (2020) Web link) and observe experimentally higher-order Weyl semimetals. The experiment is achieved via a home-designed sonic crystal. The main feature of higher-order Weyl semimetal is the coexistence of Fermi arc surface states and the hinge-arc states connecting the higher-order Weyl points.
