      Summary: We investigate stability of matter of the Hartree-Fock functional of the relativistic electron-positron field -- in suitable second quantization -- interacting via a second quantized Coulomb field and a classical magnetic field. We are able to show that stability holds for a range of nuclear charges \(Z_1,\dots, Z_K\leq Z\) and fine structure constants \(\alpha\) that include the physical value of \(\alpha\) and elements up to holmium \((Z= 67)\).
