Light charged pion in ultra-strong magnetic field

Jingyi Chao,

Abstract: In this work, the mass of charged pions is investigated in the presence of background magnetic fields stronger than the energy scale of QCD. We introduce an anomaly magnetic momentum term in the Dirac equation and obtain the quark propagator as consequence. We find a novel finite Landau level, denoted as tlLL, becoming dominant rather than the conventional lowest Landau level. We examine that, due to the shifting of Landau level, it drives a mass decreasing around eB ∼ 0.8 GeV 2 for charged pions and their mas… Show more

“…In large B limit, we proved the gauge independence and obtained an asymptotic form for the pole mass, which implies an increasing feature with B. However, recent lattice simulations find an unexpected decreasing feature of π ± pole mass, so some important effects might be missing in NJL model, such as the recently proposed effect of anomalous magnetic moment [40]. That comprises the next step of our study of pion masses in NJL model.…”

“…For charged particles, Zeeman splitting is observed for different spin components, the mass spectra are considerably modified by quark loop polarization, but no nonmonotonic behavior for charged pion mass is observed [27,28,31,32,[38][39][40]. The AMM under magnetic field attracted quite lots of interests recently [23,[41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55]. The magnetic field catalyzes the chiral condensate, which is composed of pair of quark and antiquark with anti-parallel spins and carries net MM thus triggering dynamical anomalous magnetic moment(AMM) of quark [41,43,45].…”

“…Meson spectrum of QCD in the external magnetic field is of important interest by itself [16,26,[41][42][43][44][45][46][47], and in particular the mass of a neutral pion in the external magnetic field may be helpful to understand the reduction of T pc given that neutral pion is a Goldstone boson in the nonzero magnetic field. Besides that as implied from the QCD inequality [48] the mass sum of the up and down quark flavor components of the neutral pion is a lower bound of the mass of a charged ρ meson whose condensation could signal the transition of the QCD vacuum into a superconducting state in a sufficiently strong magnetic field [49,50].…”
