"Strongly interacting matter in magnetic fields": an overview
read the original abstract
This is an introduction to the volume of Lecture Notes in Physics on "Strongly interacting matter in magnetic fields". The volume combines contributions written by a number of experts on different aspects of the problem. The response of QCD matter to intense magnetic fields has attracted a lot of interest recently. On the theoretical side, this interest stems from the possibility to explore the plethora of novel phenomena arising from the interplay of magnetic field with QCD dynamics. On the experimental side, the interest is motivated by the recent results on the behavior of quark-gluon plasma in a strong magnetic field created in relativistic heavy ion collisions at RHIC and LHC. The purpose of this introduction is to provide a brief overview and a guide to the individual contributions where these topics are covered in detail.

Mass spectra of charged mesons and the quenching of vector meson condensation via exact phase-space diagonalization
In the NJL model with exact phase-space diagonalization, magnetic catalysis of the chiral condensate quenches the tachyonic instability of the spin-aligned rho+ by driving the 2M threshold above the Zeeman-lowered mas...

Finite-Size Effects on the Critical End Point of Magnetized Quark Matter in the Nonlocal PNJL Model
Finite-size effects in the nonlocal PNJL model shift the critical end point of magnetized quark matter toward higher chemical potentials and lower temperatures as droplet radius decreases.

Effect of anomalous magnetic moment of quarks on the phase structure and mesonic properties in the NJL model
In the two-flavor NJL model with anomalous magnetic moment of quarks, external magnetic field produces inverse magnetic catalysis and a magnetic-field-dependent drop in the Mott temperature for the Goldstone mode.
