Abstract
We especially consider the high baryon density Ï0 condensed phase, in which chiral symmetry is spontaneously broken, with space varying expectation values of the Ï and Ï0 fields. This phase has a spin polarized Fermi sea as the ground state. We show that there is indeed generated a macroscopic magnetization in this phase, contrary to what one would have found, if one just used a primitive phenomenological magnetic moment formula for explicit/current fermion masses. This is important in the context of neutron stars, as such a high density state may be responsible for very high magnetic fields in the dense core of neutron stars.
