Spontaneous Generation of Magnetic Field in Three Dimensional QED at Finite Temperature
arXiv:hep-th/9711011 · doi:10.1016/S0370-2693(98)00264-0
Abstract
We investigate the effects of thermal fluctuations on the spontaneous magnetic condensate in three dimensional QED coupled with P-odd Dirac fermions. Our results show that the phenomenon of the spontaneous generation of the constant background magnetic field survives to the thermal corrections even at infinite temperature. We also study the thermal corrections to the fermionic condensate in presence of the magnetic field.
