General structure of a gauge boson propagator and pressure of deconfined QCD matter in a weakly magnetized medium

Abstract

We have systematically constructed the general structure of the gauge boson self-energy and the effective propagator in presence of a nontrivial background like hot magnetized material medium. Based on this as well as the general structure of fermion propagator in weakly magnetized medium we have calculated pressure of deconfined QCD matter within HTL approximation.
