Abstract
In our letter we establish coupling of the effective Heisenberg–Euler Lagrangian on the order of 1/m4 and the Chiral Magnetic Effect known for a massless particles. We consider a generalization of the effective Heisenberg–Euler Lagrangian from QED to QCD and then calculate the induced vector current. Further, considering the vector current, we establish a method to connect the perturbative result with the Chiral Magnetic Effect. We formulate the rule of transit from perturbation to nonperturbation (formula (5)) and obtain the well-known result for a massless particles.
