Dense Quark Matter in a Magnetic Field

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We explore the effects of an applied strong external magnetic field in the structure and magnitude of the color superconducting diquark condensate of a three massless flavor theory. The long-range component of the B field that penetrates the superconductor enhances the condensates formed by quarks charged with respect to this electromagnetic field.
