Abstract
Hadron masses under strong magnetic fields are studied. In the presence of strong magnetic fields exceeding the QCD energy scale , symmetry of hadrons is explicitly broken so that the quark components of hadrons differ from those with zero or weak magnetic fields . Also, squeezing of hadrons by strong magnetic fields affects the hadron mass spectrum. We develop a quark model which appropriately incorporates these features and analytically calculate various hadron masses including mesons, baryons and those with strangeness.
