✦ Synopsis

It is argued that the observational evidence that most of the net magnetic flux through the solar photosphere is concentrated into small, isolated and intense flux tubes might indicate the presence of Chern-Simons physics in this lowermost layer of the solar atmosphere. We show, in particular, that the main effect of the Chern-Simons term is to associate with each 'lump' of uncompensated electric charge a flux tube which is carried around by the motion of the lump in a 'rigid way', resembling thus fairly well what one really observes.

We examine the problem of determining which representations of the braid group on a Riemann surface and carried by the wave function of a quantized Abelian Chern Simons theory interacting with spinless non-dynamical matter. We generalize the quantization of Chern Simons theory to the case where the
