Abstract

We study the relativistic quark-antiquark system embedded in magnetic field (MF). The Hamiltonian containing confinement, color Coulomb and spin-spin interaction is derived. We analytically follow the evolution of the lowest neutral meson state as a function of MF strength. Calculating the color Coulomb energy VCoulV_{Coul} we have observed the unbounded negative (at least in the limit of large NcN_c) contribution at large MF which makes the mass negative for eB>eBcritQCDeB> eB^{QCD}_{crit}. We display the π0\pi^0 and ρ0\rho^0 masses as functions of MF in comparison with recent lattice data.
