Importance of asymptotic freedom for the pseudocritical temperature in magnetized quark matter

RLS Farias, KP Gomes, G Krein, MB Pinto - Physical Review C, 2014 - APS
Although asymptotic freedom is an essential feature of QCD, it is absent in effective chiral
quark models like the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio and linear sigma models. In this work we …

Magnetic catalysis and inverse magnetic catalysis in QCD

N Mueller, JM Pawlowski - Physical Review D, 2015 - APS
We investigate the effects of strong magnetic fields on the QCD phase structure at vanishing
density by solving the gluon and quark gap equations, and by studying the dynamics of the …

Phase diagram of QCD in a magnetic background

M D'Elia, L Maio, F Sanfilippo, A Stanzione - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
We provide numerical evidence that the thermal QCD crossover turns into a first order
transition in the presence of large enough magnetic background fields. The critical end point …

Bulk properties of a Fermi gas in a magnetic field

M Strickland, V Dexheimer, DP Menezes - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields …, 2012 - APS
We calculate the number density, energy density, transverse pressure, longitudinal
pressure, and magnetization of an ensemble of spin one-half particles in the presence of a …

Inverse magnetic catalysis for the chiral transition induced by thermo-magnetic effects on the coupling constant

A Ayala, M Loewe, AJ Mizher, R Zamora - Physical Review D, 2014 - APS
We compute the one-loop thermomagnetic corrections to the self-coupling in a model where
charged scalars interact also with a constant magnetic field. The calculation is motivated by …
