Nucleon masses in strong magnetic fields

High Energy Physics - Lattice 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

We compute the variation of the masses of the proton and the neutron induced by the presence of a strong external magnetic field. We discuss the choice of the wave function and different techniques how to apply the magnetic field. The results obtained from a 24 16^2 8 and a 16^2 8^2 lattice are compared with a phenomenological approach.
