SU(2) low energy quark effective couplings in weak external magnetic field
Abstract
In this work corrections to the usual flavor SU(2) Nambu-Jona-Lasinio coupling due to a weak external magnetic field are calculated by considering quark polarization in a (dressed) gluon exchange mechanism for quark interactions. The quark field is splitted into two components, one that condenses and another one that is a background field for interacting quarks, being the former integrated out. The resulting determinant is expanded for relatively large quark mass and small magnetic field, by resolving magnetic field dependent low energy quark effective interactions. Besides the corrections for the NJL and vector NJL effective couplings, different dependent effective couplings that break isospin and chiral symmetry emerge.
