Nematic Bogoliubov Fermi surfaces from magnetic toroidal order in FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$

Recently it has been argued that the superconducting state of FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$ exhibits Bogoliubov Fermi surfaces for $x>0.17$. These Bogoliubov Fermi surfaces appear together with broken time-reversal symmetry and surprisingly demonstrate nematic behavior in a structurally tetragonal phase. Through a symmetry-based analysis of Bogoliubov Fermi surfaces that can arise from broken time-reversal symmetry, we argue that the likely origin of time-reversal symmetry breaking is due to magnetic toroidal order. We show that this magnetic toroidal order naturally appears as a consequence of either static N\'{e}el antiferromagnetic order or due to the formation of a spontaneous pair density wave superconducting order. Finally, we reveal that independent of the presence of Bogoliubov Fermi surfaces, supercurrents will induce N\'{e}el magnetic order in many Fe-based superconductors.
