Hot and dense pQCD in a very strong magnetic background

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2025-09-08 v1

Abstract

We compute the pressure, chiral condensate and strange quark number susceptibility from perturbative QCD up to two-loop order at finite temperature and very high magnetic fields with physical quark masses. We also discuss the case of cold and dense quark matter in the presence of a very strong magnetic field and constraints for quark magnetars.
