Abstract:
Strong magnetic fields, such as those produced in relativistic heavy-ion collisions, profoundly alter the properties of QCD bound states. In this talk, I present a relativistic light-front dynamics study of charmonium systems under extreme magnetic fields using the Basis Light-Front Quantization (BLFQ) framework. By solving the invariant mass squared operator with confinement and one-gluon-exchange interactions, we obtain the mass spectrum and wave functions under varying magnetic fields. We uncover significant spectral modifications, including Zeeman splitting, ηc-J/ψ mixing, and magnetic sub-level degeneracy breaking. Relativistic effects, such as transverse momentum broadening and longitudinal narrowing of wave functions, reveal structural deformations, while parton distribution functions exhibit novel double-hump profiles in excited states. Our results highlight the necessity of a relativistic framework to capture center-of-mass coupling and quantum corrections, which non-relativistic models fail to address.
