Description
The chiral magnetic effect (CME) is a macroscopic manifestation of the quantum anomaly. We will discuss the recent progress in theoretical understanding the nature of chiral plasmas, in which the CME and other anomaly-induced transports take place. We show that a nontrivial interplay of anomalous currents and dynamical electromagnetic fields leads to the modification of the properties of waves in such plasmas.
