>From an old post as follows: Strong magnetic fields can break down the vacuum, to result in the creation of p mesons.
http://homepages.uni-regensburg.de/~eng14891/qcdB_workshop/pdf/QCDB_Callebaut.pdf Holographic study of magnetically induced p meson condensation QCD in strong magnetic Fields In the last slide Conclusion: back to objectives Studied e_ect: *r *meson condensation phenomenological models: Bc = m2 *r *= 0.6 GeV2 lattice simulation: slightly higher value of Bc _ 0.9 GeV2 holographic approach: can the *r *meson condensation be modeled? Yes can this approach deliver new insights? e.g. taking into account constituents, e_ect on Bc Up and down quark constituents of the *p *meson can be modeled as separate branes, each responding to the magnetic Field by changing their embedding. This is a modeling of the chiral magnetic catalysis e_ect. We take this into account and _nd also a string e_ect on the mass, leading to a Bcrit _ 0.78 GeV2 In simple terms, if the magnetic field is strong enough, the vacuum breaks down an p meson start to condense into existence.
