BEC-BCS crossover in a cold and magnetized two color NJL model

The BEC-BCS crossover for a Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model with diquark interactions is studied in the presence of an external magnetic field. Particular attention is paid to different regularization schemes used in the literature. A thorough comparison of results is performed for the case of a cold and magnetized two-color NJL model. According to our results, the critical chemical potential for the BEC transition exhibits a clear inverse magnetic catalysis effect for magnetic fields in the range (ProQuest: Formulae and/or non-USASCII text omitted). As for the BEC-BCS crossover, the corresponding critical chemical potential is very weakly sensitive to magnetic fields up to eB~9m2[pi], showing a much smaller inverse magnetic catalysis as compared to the BEC transition, and displays a strong magnetic catalysis from this point on.
