Magnetization and dynamically induced finite densities in three-dimensional Chern-Simons QED

In (2+1)-dimensional QED with a Chern-Simons term, we show that spontaneous magnetization occurs in the context of finite density vacua, which are the lowest Landau levels fully or half occupied by fermions. Charge condensation is shown to appear so as to complement the fermion anti-fermion condensate, which breaks the flavor U(2N) symmetry and causes fermion mass generation. The solutions to the Schwinger-Dyson gap equation show that the fermion self-energy contributes to the induction of a finite fermion density and/or fermion mass. The magnetization can be supported by charge condensation for theories with the Chern-Simons coefficient $\kappa=N e^2/2 \pi$, and $\kappa=N e^2/4 \pi$, under the Gauss law constraint. For $\kappa=N e^2/4 \pi$, both the magnetic field and the fermion mass are simultaneously generated in the half-filled ground state, which breaks the U(2N) symmetry as well as the Lorentz symmetry.Comment: 47 pages, 5 figures, revtex; revised for publication in Nucl.

Ultrastructural analysis of HNK-1 + cells in human peripheral blood and lymph nodes

HNK-1 positive (HNK-1+) cells in human peripheral blood and lymph nodes were comparatively analysed by means of immunohistochemistry and immunoelectron microscopy. In peripheral blood, the HNK-1' cells were grouped into large granular lymphocytes (LGLs), small lymphocytes and intermediate forms, al1 of which had many fine cytoplasmic processes. Except for smoothsurfaced lymphocytes, they could not be distinguished from helperlinducer T (OKT41Leu3a) cells and suppresssor/cytotoxic T (OKT81Leu2a) cells. In double staining, HNKlfT3- cells and HNK-1+T3+ cells could not be clearly distinguished in terms of morphology, although the former contained many LGLs. The HNK-1+ cells in the lymph nodes accumulated in the light zones of the germinal centers (GCs). These cells were small to medium-sized lymphocytes with few electron-dense granules and exclusively co-expressed helperlinducer T cell antigens (HNK-1+T4+). Their cytoplasmic projections were interwoven with those of the follicular dendritic cells which trap immune complexes for a long duration. These configurations suggesl that HNK-1+T4+ cells in GCs are engaged in an immunological regulation of germinal center cells. On the other hand. large blastic HNK-1+ cells were scattered outside the GCs and some of them were in the process of mitosis. Furthermore, HNKl+ LGL-like cells with a few large electron-dense granules were rarely seen. These observations indicate that the HNK-1+ cells in the lymph nodes may proliferate outside GCs and differentiate into LGLs with a strong natural killer function
