Pion decay width in a uniform magnetic background, constructed within chiral perturbation theory, is compared with lattice QCD for which results are available in the muon channel. While the results are consistent for large magnetic fields,…

Chiral effects exhibit peculiar universality in idealized theoretical limits. However, they are known to be infrared sensitive and get modified in more realistic settings. In this work, we study how the corresponding conductivities vary…

The thermal self-energy of an electron in a static uniform magnetic field $B$ is calculated to first order in the fine structure constant $\alpha $ and to all orders in $eB$. We use two methods, one based on the Furry picture and another…
We apply thermal field theory methods to compute microscopically the nucleon self-energy arising from one-pion exchange in isospin-symmetric nuclear matter and neutron matter. A self-consistent numerical scheme is introduced and its…
We find a general expression for the one-loop self-energy function of neutral $\rho$-meson due to $\pi^+\pi^-$ intermediate state in a background magnetic field, valid for arbitrary magnitudes of the field. The pion propagator used in this…
The environment generated in the mid-rapidity region of a high-energy nuclear collision endows the pionic degrees of freedom with a time-dependent effective mass. Its specific evolution provides a mechanism for the production of…
We consider the effects of an external magnetic field on rotating fermions in 1+2,3 dimensions. The dual effect of a rotation parallel to the magnetic field causes a net increase in the fermionic density by centrifugation, which follows…
In the absence of nucleons, we use partial wave unitarity, to show that the chiral expansion parameter must be close to $p^2/4\pi f_{\pi}^2$ rather than $p^2/16\pi^2 f_{\pi}^2$ as previously suggested, where $p$ is a typical pion momentum…
The pattern of chiral symmetry breaking is exploited to compute vector and axial-vector pion matrix elements in a uniform magnetic field. Our results are model independent, and thereby constitute low-energy theorems that must be obeyed by…
We study the impact of pions in simulations of neutron star mergers and explore the impact on gravitational-wave observables. We model charged and neutral pions as a non-interacting Boson gas with a chosen, constant effective mass. We add…
We present a minimal model that provides a description of the magnetic and thermodynamic properties of \Eu. The model contains two exchange coupling parameters, which are calculated using Density Functional Theory, and a local easy axis…
