Description
We have shown by lattice QED simulations that an external magnetic field
induces chiral symmetry breaking with a non-zero chiral condensate, as predicted
by Schwinger-Dyson methods, using a single large external magnetic field
(see J.B.Kogut and D.K.Sinclair, Phys. Rev. D 109, 034511 (2024)). We
are now extending these simulations to a weaker magnetic field to test that
the chiral condensate is $\propto(eB)^{3/2}$ as expected.
