Open Bottom mesons in magnetized matter: effects of (inverse) magnetic catalysis

In-medium masses of the pseudoscalar and vector open bottom mesons ($B$, $\bar{B}$, $B_s$ and $B^*$, $\bar{B}^*$, $B_s^*$) are studied in the magnetized nuclear matter by considering the effects of Dirac sea, within the chiral effective model. The mass modifications arise due to the interactions of the open bottom mesons with the nucleons and the scalar mesons, calculated in terms of the scalar and number densities of the nucleons and the scalar fields fluctuations. The effects of the magnetized Dirac sea lead to the considerable changes in the scalar fields with magnetic field, which are related to the light quark condensates. There is observed to be a (reduction) enhancement in the light quark condensates with magnetic field, a phenomenon called (inverse) magnetic catalysis.The contribution of the magnetic field on the Fermi sea of nucleons are taken into account through the Landau energy levels of protons and anomalous magnetic moments (AMMs) of the nucleons. The additional contribution of the lowest Landau level for the charged mesons are considered. The spin-magnetic field interaction between the longitudinal component of the vector and the pseudoscalar mesons ($B^{*||}(\bar{B}^{*||})-B (\bar{B}))$ and ($B_s^{*||}-B_s$) are studied, which lead to a level repulsion between their masses with magnetic field. Magnetic fields are observed to have significant contribution on the in-medium masses of the open bottom mesons through the Dirac sea effect as comparedto the case when this effect is not considered. In vacuum, considerable changes are obtained only due to the magnetized Dirac sea at zero and finite nucleonic AMMs.
