Quarkyonic Chiral Spirals in a Magnetic Field    [PDF]

Efrain J. Ferrer, Vivian de la Incera, Angel Sanchez

We discuss the formation of quarkyonic chiral spirals in the presence of a magnetic field. The explicit breaking of the rotational symmetry by the external magnetic field gives rise to an additional chiral spiral that varies along the field direction and rotates in the chiral space between pion and magnetic moment components.
