QCD in external magnetic fields — •Gergely Endrödi — Goethe University Frankfurt

The physics of strongly interacting matter in background magnetic fields features rich phenomenology and has a wide range of applications, ranging from heavy-ion collisions through neutron star physics to the evolution of the early Universe. The most effective systematic approach to investigate this field is by means of numerical lattice simulations of the underlying theory, QCD. In this talk I give an overview of the recent developments in lattice QCD with background magnetic fields and discuss the relevance of the results for heavy-ion phenomenology.
