Popis: Dirac materials, unlike the Weyl materials, have not been found in experiments to support intrinsic topological surface states, as the surface arcs in existing systems are unstable against symmetry-preserving perturbations. Utilizing the proposed glide and time-reversal symmetries, we theoretically design and experimentally verify an acoustic crystal of two frequency-isolated three-dimensional Dirac points with $Z_2$ monopole charges and four gapless helicoid surface states.
