Positronium collapse and the maximum magnetic field in pure QED.
A maximum value for the magnetic field is determined, which provides the full compensation of the positronium rest mass by the binding energy in the maximum symmetry state and disappearance of the…
Comment on "modified Coulomb law in a strongly magnetized vacuum".
TLDR
The asymptotic expression for the dynamical fermion mass, reliable in the weak coupling regime and the strong field approximation is obtained and is given by Shabad and Usov.
Dynamical electron mass in a strong magnetic field
Motivated by recent interest in understanding properties of strongly magnetized matter, we study the dynamical electron mass generated through approximate chiral symmetry breaking in QED in a strong…
Dynamical chiral symmetry breaking in QED in a magnetic field: Toward exact results
We describe an (first, to the best of our knowledge) essentially soluble example of dynamical symmetry breaking phenomenon in a (3+1) -dimensional gauge theory without fundamental scalar fields: QED…
Chiral symmetry breaking in a uniform external magnetic field
Using the nonperturbative Schwinger-Dyson equation, we show that chiral symmetry is dynamically broken in QED at weak gauge couplings when an external magnetic field is present and that chiral…
Bethe-Salpeter approach for relativistic positronium in a strong magnetic field
We study the electron-positron system in a strong, constant, and homogeneous magnetic field using the differential Bethe-Salpeter equation in the ladder approximation. We derive the fully…
Gauge independence and chiral symmetry breaking in a strong magnetic field
Catalysis of Dynamical Flavor Symmetry Breaking by a Magnetic Field in 2+1 Dimensions.
It is shown that in 2+1 dimensions,a constant magnetic field is a strong cata- lyst of dynamical flavor symmetry breaking,leading to generating a fermion dy- namical mass even at the weakest…

Comment on "Electron mass operator in a strong magnetic field and dynamical chiral symmetry breaking".
TLDR
This is a comment on the paper ``Electron Mass Operator in a Strong Magnetic Field and Dynamical Chiral Symmetry Breaking" by A. V. Kuznetsov and N. Mikheev, showing that the main conclusions are incorrect.
