Description
We demonstrate the existence of the chiral magnetic effect inan electron-positron magnetized gas.
A pseudo-vector(conserved)Ohm current is induced by the electric field related to the longitudinal
QED mode propagating parallel to the external magnetic field and separating opposite charges
of the same heliticity. From a relation between axial and electromagnetic currents we obtain a non-conserved current leading to an expression close to the usual axial anomaly. The effect is interesting
in connection to the QCD chiral magnetic case reported in current literature.
