We study the dynamical generation of masses for fundamental fermions in quenched quantum electrodynamics in the presence of weak magnetic fields using Schwinger-Dyson equations. Contrary to the case where the magnetic field is strong, in the weak field limit the coupling should exceed certain critical value in order for the generation of masses to take place, just as in the case where no magnetic field is present. The weak field limit is defined as eB << m(0)^2, where m(0) is the value of the dynamically generated mass in the absence of the field. We carry out a numerical analysis to study the magnetic field dependence of the mass function above critical coupling and show that in this regime the dynamically generated mass and the chiral condensate for the lowest Landau level increase proportionally to (eB)^2.

    hep-ph 2026-07 accept novelty 6.5

    In a background magnetic field the QED vertex decomposes into parallel and transverse structures even at tree level; the one-loop transverse anomalous magnetic moment is complex, forbids LLL-to-LLL transitions, and is...

  2. QED vertex and anomalous magnetic moment in the presence of a magnetic field

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    A one-loop QED calculation finds a magnetic-field-induced transverse anomalous magnetic moment with Landau-level selection rules, zero LLL-to-LLL strength, and opposite signs for reverse transitions.

  3. QED vertex and anomalous magnetic moment in the presence of a magnetic field

    hep-ph 2026-07 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    In a magnetic field the QED fermion–photon vertex already splits at tree level into longitudinal and transverse pieces, and one-loop corrections generate direction-dependent anomalous magnetic moments with selection r...

    Photon emission rate and electromagnetic energy loss from rescattering in magnetized QGP are derived in the high-energy limit, showing slight suppression over broad jet energies.
