Mass Generation in the Supersymmetric Nambu--Jona--Lasinio Model in an External Magnetic Field

Abstract

The mass generation in the (3+1)-dimensional supersymmetric Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model in a constant magnetic field is studied. It is shown that the external magnetic field catalyzes chiral symmetry breaking.
