Vacuum free energy, quark condensate shifts and magnetization in three-flavor chiral perturbation theory to O(p6) in a uniform magnetic field

We study three-flavor QCD in a uniform magnetic field using chiral perturbation theory (χPT). We construct the vacuum free energy density, quark condensate shifts induced by the magnetic field and the renormalized magnetization to O(p6) in the chiral expansion. We find that the calculation of the fr...
