Abstract
In this work, we study the properties of single-flavor heavy baryons, and , in a strong magnetic field. For that sake, we simply treat the baryons as quark-diquark two-body systems, and a systematic formalism is developed to deal with two-body Schrdinger equations in a magnetic field. It is found that: 1. The orbital properties of are almost not affected by the magnetic field. 2. is more tightly bound in the presence of a magnetic field. 3. The magnetic-spin effect dominates over the magnetic-orbital effect. Applying to peripheral heavy ion collisions, is much better than to explore the magnetic effect, and the discovery of could be more promising.
