| dc.description | It is shown that the chiral symmetry is spontaneously broken by a constant magnetic field in QED. The dynamical mass of fermions (energy gap in the fermion spectrum) is $m_{dyn}\simeq C\sqrt{eB}\exp\left[-\left(π/α\right) ^{1/2}\right]$, where $B$ is the magnetic field, the constant $C$ is of order one and $α=e^2/4π$ is the renormalized coupling constant. Possible applications of this effect are discussed. | |
