We study the effects of moderately strong magnetic fields on the properties of color-flavor locked color superconducting quark matter in the framework of the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. We find that the energy gaps, which describe the color superconducting pairing as well as the magnetization, are oscillating functions of the magnetic field. Also, we observe that the oscillations of the magnetization can be so strong that homogeneous quark matter becomes metastable for a range of parameters. We suggest that this points to the possibility of magnetic domains or other types of magnetic inhomogeneities in the quark cores of magnetars.

  1. Weak Bose-Einstein condensation in a rigidly rotating magnetized charged Bose gas

    hep-ph 2026-07 reject novelty 5.0

    Rigid rotation does not restore a sharp BEC transition in a magnetized charged Bose gas; it only changes thermodynamics, and can flip the magnetic response toward paramagnetism.

  2. Effect of anomalous magnetic moment of quarks on the phase structure and mesonic properties in the NJL model

    nucl-th 2019-07 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    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.

    hep-ph 2026-06 conditional novelty 3.5

    MFIR plus MSS regularization of the NJL model keeps the 2SC superconducting gap finite at large chemical potential under magnetic fields and eliminates spurious normal-phase transitions and de Haas–van Alphen artifacts.

    Review of MFIR and MSS schemes showing the superconducting gap stays finite at high chemical potential in magnetized cold quark matter with no zero-temperature transition to normal phase.
