摘要:We investigate the properties of the deconfining/chiral restoring transition for two flavor QCD in presence of a uniform backgroundmagnetic field. We adopt a standard staggered discretization of the fermion action, different values of the bare quark mass corresponding to pion masses ranging from 200 to 500 MeV, and magnetic fields up to eB ∼ 1 GeV2. We present first results regarding the dependence of the deconfinement and chiral transition temperature, as well as the strength of the transition on the magnetic field.
