Chiral magnetic effect in the presence of electroweak interactions as a quasiclassical phenomenon

Abstract
We elaborate the quasiclassical approach to obtain the modified chiral magnetic effect in the case when massless charged fermions interact with electromagnetic fields and the background matter by the electroweak forces. The derivation of the anomalous current along the external magnetic field involves the study of the energy density evolution of chiral particles in parallel electric and magnetic fields. We consider both the particle acceleration by the external electric field and the contribution of the Adler anomaly. The condition of the validity of this method for the derivation of the chiral magnetic effect is formulated. We obtain the expression for the electric current along the external magnetic field, which appears to coincide with our previous results based on the purely quantum approach. Our results are compared with findings of other authors.
